LANSING, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — The Michigan Department of Treasury is reporting that qualified homeowners and renters have less than a week to apply for a Home Heating Credit.
According to an official press release, Low-income, deaf, disabled or blind persons, disabled veterans and senior citizens may qualify for the credit to help pay their energy bills.
“Eligible individuals should not wait to apply for the Home Heating Credit,” State Treasurer Rachael Eubanks said in the press release. “This important tax credit can provide some relief as we enter into the fall heating season, leaving more money available for other critical needs.”
All applications for the Home Heating Credit must be received by September 30th to qualify.
The Michigan Department of Treasury says that the average credit is $195, making a total of almost $57 million paid out from January through August.
