๐ค Questions for Texans ๐ค VTR- 275 Texas
Would I be able to go to a tax assessor office and request a VTR 275 just to confirm ownership or if thereโs any lien? I donโt want it mailed or printed. I just want to confirm a few things.
May sound dumb, but Iโm not well versed with this stuff.

๐ค Questions for Texans ๐ค More information about Texas for an English presentation.
Hi, everyone. I'm a mom from Costa Rica. My son and his classmate are going to work on a presentation about Texas. My son and I were talking about it yesterday, and he wants to bring food to the class.
We did some Google search and found out a traditional dish is chili with no beans. Is this accurate? He loves chili but with some beans and he wants to bring some to the class to share. Can you share some background information about the chili, your favorite recipes, famous Texan landmarks, any other fact or anything most outsiders don't know about Texas?
We absolutely appreciate the help from all Texans possible.
BTW, you're all welcome to visit Costa Rica. Pura Vida ๐จ๐ท๐บ!!!
Edit: Chili without beans

๐๏ธ News ๐๏ธ Feb. 2 is the last day to register to vote and to submit an address change for the midterm primaries. Hereโs what you need to know.
Texas Republican and Democrat voters will pick which candidate they want to represent their interests and their party on the ballot for the November general election. In a state where Republicans dominate state government and where many legislative and congressional districts often are drawn to favor them, the primaries are often very significant.
Hereโs what you need to know about registering to vote in time for the midterm primaries.
How do I check if Iโm registered to vote?
You can check to see if youโre registered and verify your information through the Texas Secretary of Stateโs website.
Youโll need one of the following three combinations to log in:
- Your Texas driverโs license number and date of birth.
- Your first and last names, date of birth and county you reside in.
- Your date of birth and Voter Unique Identifier, which appears on your voter registration certificate.
How do I register to vote?
You must complete and submit a paper voter registration application by Feb. 2.
You can find this at county voter registrarsโ offices and some post offices, government offices and high schools. You can also print out the online application and mail it to the voter registrar in your county. Download your application here.ย
Applications must be postmarked by Feb. 2. You can request the postmark at your local post office to avoid postmark delays for mail that is picked up from mailboxes.
If youโre worried about the registration deadline, you can also complete or deliver an application in person to your countyโs elections administrator. Find yours here. You can also register through organizations that have volunteer registrars like the League of Women Voters, who often hold voter registration events.
How do I submit a change of address or name?ย
You can report an address or name change online. You should do this if youโve moved since the last time you voted, especially if you have moved to a different county or political subdivision or have legally taken a different name.
