You May Already Be Approved For Energy Bill Help
Thousands of households may already meet the basic LIHEAP requirements. In many cases, the next step is simply completing the application to see if help is available in your area.
If your heating or electric bills have been hard to manage, you may not need to wait to see if help exists. The Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, often called LIHEAP, was created to help eligible households lower the burden of rising utility costs.
Many applicants are surprised to learn they may already fall within the basic income or household guidelines. That means the main step left is to review the requirements and submit an application.
Support may be available for:
- Heating bill
- Electric bills
- Cooling costs
- Past-due utility balances
- Emergency energy assistance
If you qualify, this program may help reduce the pressure of monthly utility expenses and provide relief when you need it most.
Funding and availability can vary by state and local agency. If assistance is available in your area, it’s important to review your options and complete the application as soon as possible.
