A sleeping room is less than a complete living unit that may or may not have a private entrance. If the living unit has both kitchen and bath facilities within it, it is NOT a sleeping room. Renters of sleeping rooms may be eligible for LIHEAP benefits.

 

In determining basic eligibility, the household must meet both income and asset limitations. The household's estimated cost of heating will be one-fourth of the one bedroom column on the cost/consumption table, not to exceed 25% of annual rent costs.
