LIHEAP Subsidios de Crisis — Emergencias de calefacción Ayuda adicional de LIHEAP, encima del subsidio en efectivo, para hogares en una emergencia de calefacción: equipo de calefacción roto o tuberías con fugas que deben arreglarse o reemplazarse, falta de combustible, o el corte de la fuente principal de calefacción. Las mismas reglas de ingreso que LIHEAP Cash (150% o menos del Límite Federal de Pobreza; máximos de febrero de 2026: 1 persona $23,940 al año, 4 personas $49,500). Los solicitantes elegibles reciben los beneficios dentro de 10 días laborables desde la solicitud — antes, en una crisis urgente que amenaza la vida. Solicítelo por COMPASS; la línea LIHEAP es 1-866-857-7095.
