Why Seniors and Veterans in Houston Need Debt Relief
More than 12% of Houston’s population is over the age of 65, and the city is home to over 250,000 veterans. Rising medical costs, fixed retirement incomes, and predatory lending are creating a dangerous financial storm for many local seniors and former service members.
Common types of debt for Houston retirees and vets include:
- Medical bills not covered by Medicare or TRICARE
- Credit card balances used to cover daily expenses
- Property tax delinquencies on homesteads
- IRS back taxes or penalties

Can Veterans Get Debt Relief?
Yes. Veterans often qualify for additional support based on military service, VA ratings, and federal protections. CuraDebt helps connect you with programs and legal strategies that preserve your VA benefits while resolving your debt.
Houston-area veteran support includes:
- VA Disability Debt Dispute Assistance
- Overpayment Relief and Waiver Programs
- Texas Veterans Commission Financial Assistance

Are My Social Security Benefits Protected?
Yes. Social Security income is generally protected from garnishment—except for certain debts like IRS back taxes or federal student loans. CuraDebt helps you avoid escalation and protect the limited income you rely on.
Meet “Gloria” – A Real Houston Client
Gloria, a 72-year-old retired teacher in Houston, owed over $22,000 in credit card debt. With no family support and a fixed monthly income, she couldn’t keep up. CuraDebt negotiated settlements on three of her accounts, reducing her total balance to just over $7,500—paid off over 24 months.
Why Not Just File for Bankruptcy?
While Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 may be an option, many seniors and veterans prefer to avoid court filings. Bankruptcy stays on your credit for up to 10 years and can affect housing, car purchases, and refinancing. CuraDebt provides legal alternatives that allow you to pay less and avoid long-term damage.
