LIHEAP Eligibility & Income Limits by State (2026)

LIHEAP helps low-income households pay home heating and cooling bills, and can help in an energy emergency (like a shut-off). Each state sets its own income limit — commonly between 110% and 150% of the poverty level, or 60% of the state median income.
