Water Bill Relief
Landed a seasonal job but still behind on water from summer shut-offs. Does NY have any one-time water assistance that isn’t tied to heating season?

Landed a seasonal job but still behind on water from summer shut-offs. Does NY have any one-time water assistance that isn’t tied to heating season?
Yes—LIHWAP runs year-round in NY as long as federal funds last. It’s not just winter; it clears arrears and can prevent disconnection. My buddy in Syracuse applied in July and had his $620 balance wiped before the next cycle. You’ll need ID, recent bills, and proof of income for the last 30 days. Application is online or at local DSS offices. Start here: https://www.utilityassistance.org/lihwap-ny/ – takes about 20 minutes if you have PDFs ready
