Your application paperwork
Indiana runs LIHEAP as the Energy Assistance Program (EAP), a once-a-year benefit paid directly to your utility company to help with winter heating and electric costs. You apply online through the EAP Connect portal or in person with a Local Service Provider, and there is no single statewide paper form you download and mail in yourself.
Steps to apply
- Confirm your household income is at or below 60 percent of the Indiana state median income (the program publishes a monthly and 3-month income table by household size).
- Open the official IHCDA Energy Assistance Program page at in.gov to confirm the current application window (the season runs roughly October through April and reopens in fall 2026).
- Create an account and complete the application in the EAP Connect online portal at https://ihcda.rhsconnect.com, or contact your county Local Service Provider to apply in person or request a paper application.
- Upload or submit your proof of income, current utility bills or account statements, and a lease or tenant verification statement if utilities are included in your rent.
- Submit the application; your Local Service Provider reviews it, determines eligibility, and pays any approved benefit directly to your utility company.
Documents you will likely need
- Proof of income for the most recent period for all household members
- Current utility bills or account statements (heating and electric)
- Lease or Tenant Verification Statement if utilities are included in your rent
- Photo identification and Social Security numbers for household members (as requested by your Local Service Provider)
