Today, the Honourable Siobhan Coady, Deputy Premier and Minister of Finance, launched the home heating supplement program.
This initiative, with an estimated cost of $31 million, was announced on May 26, 2022, as part of government’s overall plan to help residents with the cost of living, and aligns with the direction of the Health Accord to improve economic security in this province. Since March 2022, government has announced $222 million in targeted cost-of-living measures.
The supplement, which ranges between $200 and $500, is available to residents of the province whose adjusted family income for 2021 was $150,000 or less and have directly incurred costs for the purchase of furnace or stove oil to heat their home.
We are welcoming applications until November 30, 2022. Please include a copy of your invoice for the purchase of furnace or stove oil from the last year. To apply, visit their gov.nl.ca website.
