Third Party Payments 415-35-40 (Revised 10/1/22 ML #3679) View Archives
In unusual circumstances, the State LIHEAP Administrator may authorize third party payments. This is to be used only when other payment methods are inadequate and may include but are not limited to: 1. A landlord refuses to have the tenant's name on the vendor's account. (Landlord must be enrolled as a vendor and must verify that they have paid the bill in full); 2. Other circumstances as deemed appropriate by the State LIHEAP Administrator. Third party payments are entered as manual payments and require the payee to be enrolled as a LIHEAP vendor. A vendor association is required in order to issue a third-party manual payment in the system.
