A household may apply for North Dakota Heating or Emergency Assistance even though they have already moved out of state.
However, eligibility and benefits can only be established for heating incurred by the household at the time it was physically occupying a residence in North Dakota, but emergency assistance cannot be provided to any energy costs not incurred in the current living unit.
See 415-30-20 for instructions regarding determination of eligibility and benefits for this circumstance.
Similarly, households who maintain a permanent residence in North Dakota may elect to leave the state during the winter months or live with a friend or relative, maintaining only a minimum of heat in their permanent home. An eligible household may be approved for benefits for heating costs incurred during the time they actually live in their permanent North Dakota residence ONLY.
