FINANCIAL- STATE SUPPLEMENTAL PAYMENT FROM DHS This state funded program provides financial assistance to the aged, blind and disabled population who have been determined financially eligible. These individuals also receive Medicaid Services.
Energy Assistance Program helps eligible low income households with the cost of heating their homes, if they are responsible for heating costs. A household must meet certain income and resource requirements, and these requirements change yearly. If you receive SSI, your household is probably eligible.

PROPERTY VALUATION FREEZE OR "SENIOR FREEZE" Once frozen, the taxable assessed value of a homestead property will not
increase until the home is sold. This sets a cap on property taxes,
saving some hundreds of dollars a year, instead of seeing an increase of
5% a year, as some do. Check with County Assessor. (Some have said they
protest their taxes first to get it down as low as possible and then get
the freeze.) IMPORTANT!! ACTION INC. (Stillwater) Ruth Anderson - Area Director 619 W. 12th St. (405) 624-2533 Very Important
