  1. No. In Texas, a homestead cannot be taken to pay a debt, including defaulted student loans, except for debts taken for the purchase of the home, for home improvements, for home equity loans, or to pay certain taxes.

    Wages may be garnished, however, to pay for, among other things, defaulted student loans.
