R982-403-9. HEAT Financial Eligibility and Payment Determination

  All countable income received in the previous calendar month for the current applicant household will be used to determine eligibility. Terminated income received in the previous calendar month or the month of application is exempt if no new source of income is identified. Failure to provide verification of income will result in the HEAT application being denied.

  Verification of countable income includes preceding or current month's SSI or SSA checks, divorce decrees, award letters, or current check stubs if the income is stable and the amount is the same as the actual income received in the previous calendar month.
