Disabled vets receive low cost plates, registration, and low cost or free DL. The fees on hunting and fishing licenses are also free. The fee to enter state parks is also waived.

Suthdj:
I JUST got off the phone with the folks in Austin (1-800-224-5744). The pleasant young lady I spoke to said that the copy of the DD-214 does NOT...I repeat NOT need to be certified, BUT you must make sure it is a copy of the entire document, and it MUST say "Honorable Discharge".
From that I can safely conclude that you needn't start crying yet.
Good luck

Excellent. Thank you to all.
I do, in fact, have a copy of my 214.

Newbie (sort of) disabled vet question
Howdy all.
I had my first TX CHL back in 2000, and let it expire in '05 when I spent a lot of time without a physical address (full time RV'er). Now I am re-applying for a new one, and have read that legislation passed in '07 waived, or lowered the fee for disabled vets.
I'm a retiree on 100% V.A. disability, and wonder if anyone knows the facts on that particular bit of information. I have my certification letter that I file with the tax folks each year, and need to know if that is all the evidence needed, or will I need other paperwork from the V.A.
I searched here, and either did not find, or overlooked the info if it's here.
If anyone has a link to either the topic on the board, or an external one, I would be grateful.
Thanks bunches.
