Texas Penal Code § 32.32 prohibits intentionally or knowingly making a materially false or misleading written statement to obtain property or credit, including loans, insurance, or financial services. The offense level is determined entirely by the value of the property or amount of credit obtained, ranging from a Class C Misdemeanor for amounts under $100 up to a First-Degree Felony for amounts of $300,000 or more. The charge is commonly used against mortgage-fraud, loan-application-fraud, and insurance-application schemes. Enhancements apply when the victim is elderly.
