Texas payment bond claims are sent to the GC and the surety, they aren't actually filed. In terms of the form needed to make a bond claim - there are actually various different requirements depending on the type of contract utilized. You can find the required information for each of those forms here at sections 2253.043 through 2253.046. These resources should also be useful when looking to file a Texas payment bond claim: (1) How to Make a Texas Payment Bond Claim; and (2) Texas Bond Claim Guide and FAQs. Plus, keep in mind that simply threatening to make a bond claim could lead to payment, too.
