3008 ISSUING BENEFITS & PAYMENTS 3008-1 Time Frames for Assistance Payments The program begins awarding payments on November 1 of each year. Expedited eligibility determination and assistance payment awards begin on November 1 of each year and run through April 30 of the following calendar year. If a disaster occurs in an area where the household is located, the division may begin issuing heating assistance payments before November 1 if the governor has issued a disaster proclamation and the disaster has increased the need for heating assistance to the household. Payments for subsidized rental housing utility deposits (SRHUDs) are made throughout the year. 3008-2 Use of HAP Payments A. A heating assistance payment can only be used for the purchase of: • Fuel oil, kerosene, propane, natural gas, electricity, wood, wood pellets, coal, or other petroleum products used for home heating and lighting needs; • Payment of incidental charges, including deposits, delivery charges, connection fees, and late-payment charges associated with their purchase or delivery; • Rental payments if the household pays home heating costs indirectly through rent; • A household may use a portion of their oil grant to purchase one bottle of propane for cooking or lights; • A household may use up to 25% of their heating grant to purchase gasoline if the household generates their own electricity; and 10/3/2013 9:24 AM Page 92
