TX HHS Form 1092. Change of Ownership Transfer Affidavit
Form 1092 is an official affidavit used to document and certify a Change of Ownership (CHOW) for facilities licensed and regulated in the state of Texas. This form is required when operational control of a licensed facility is transferred from one legal entity to another. It ensures that both the outgoing and incoming owners formally acknowledge the transfer, verify the accuracy of the information provided, and meet state licensing requirements. The affidavit must be completed accurately, signed by authorized representatives of both parties, and notarized before submission.
Purpose and Use of the Form

The affidavit confirms the transfer of operational functions and supports compliance with Texas Administrative Code (TAC) requirements for CHOW procedures. Both parties involved in the transaction must certify the details of the ownership change and provide legally binding signatures in the presence of a notary.
