This free 1-page checklist covers LIHEAP, the federal heating-help program your state runs: what it paid last winter (Pennsylvania $200–$1,000; New York $900 base for oil or propane), the federal income ceiling versus your state's own limit (Pennsylvania: $23,940 for one person), where households with someone 60+ can apply early, crisis help and shut-off rules, the SNAP heating-allowance link, and the referral line, 1-866-674-6327.
Educational only — not financial advice. Amounts, income limits and opening dates vary by state within federal limits and change every season; confirm yours with your local LIHEAP office. Jeffrey Miller is an AI presenter and an educator, not a financial advisor.
