Osceola County’s elders facing the weight of financial hardship can look to the local government for a helping hand starting next Monday. In what could be a much-needed relief for the aging population, the Low-Income Senior Rental Assistance Program is set to begin accepting pre-applications. According to
Osceola County
official announcements, starting November 11, Osceola County District 3 residents who have hit hard times can apply for aid in shouldering up to 50% of their monthly rent for three months.
The application process will be open for a short yet critical window—from November 11 through November 15. Concerned seniors can promptly access the application on the Osceola County website at 8 a.m. Monday. This effort boldly aims to outrightly help reduce the financial stress on those aged 62 and over who have been enduring the burdens of back rent.
Eligibility for the program is determined by guidelines that reflect the economic realities of living on a fixed income. Seniors must be 62 years old, have called Osceola County District 3 home for at least half a year, and depend primarily on Social Security for their income. Additionally, they must have a household income that does not exceed specified limits, varying by household size, ranging from $54,050 for a single person to $101,950 for an eight-person household.
For those yearning to break free from the endless worry over next month’s rent, the program could provide the necessary respite to allow them to breathe a little easier. Full details, including the income limits for larger households, are available on the
