The state of New Jersey has released income guidelines for the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) and the Universal Service Fund (USF) program. As has been the custom for almost twenty years, information on these and other energy assistance programs has been updated and available on the New Jersey Community Resources website and blog.
For more information visit the website homepage or the energy assistance programs page.
The New Jersey Department of Community Affairs has released the 2015 income guidelines for the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) and the Universal Service Fund (USF) programs. The USF-LIHEAP season officially begins October 1, 2014.
The 2015 Maximum Income Limits are available at http://www.njcommunityresources.info/USFHEA2015MaximumIncomeLimits.pdf.
The state sent out an email recently to announce the deadline for energy assistance applications will be extended through May 2, 2011. The reason for the change is that the normal deadline, April 30th, falls on a Saturday. According to their news release “LIHEAP applications will be accepted until closing of normal business hours on May 2nd. We will continue accepting applications for USF all year long.”
For a list of the local LIHEAP and USF application agencies, income guidelines, and resources for other energy and weatherization programs visit the New Jersey Community Resources website.
