LIEAP is a federally funded program that helps eligible residents cover a portion of their monthly winter heating bills. If approved for LIEAP seasonal benefits, households may qualify for a one-time extra benefit if they have a heating emergency, such as past-due bills, utility deposits or a broken furnace.
The application window for seasonal and crisis assistance runs October 1, 2026 through April 30, 2027. Apply online at mylieapwyo.org. If you can't apply online, call (800) 246-4221, and the LIEAP team can help with your application over the phone.
To qualify for LIEAP, applicants must be Wyoming residents with households whose gross annual income (before taxes) is at or below 60% of the state's median income. For example, this includes limits of $2,988 a month for an individual, $3,908 for a couple or $5,747 for a family of four. Homeowners, renters and residents of permanently parked RVs or campers are all eligible to apply.
Effective October 1, households requesting crisis assistance must show a recent active effort to pay energy bills. To qualify, the household must have made at least one verifiable payment toward their primary utility, secondary utility or both within the past 60 days. If this cannot be verified, the client is not eligible for crisis assistance.
If you need assistance completing an application, call 307-742-4240 and leave a detailed voicemail so that our neighbor success team can reach out to you to schedule an appointment!
