The deadline to apply for help with your energy bill this winter is Sept 30. With so many of our seniors living on a limited income, it's quite likely some will qualify for the Michigan Home Heating Credit.
The credit assists low-income people and qualifying senior citizens with winter energy bills. Customers do not need to file a Michigan tax return to apply for the Home Heating Credit, however, they do need to submit an application. The average credit paid out in 2015 was $132.
The links below will take you to the Credit website and application. If you get the chance, you might think of mentioning the credit to your receivers.
