All utilities must be on-- we need them to do our work. The only exception is when water service has been stopped because of a broken water line which we are there to repair. |

Income eligibility
| Income of ALL household residents is counted, including children. |
| The applicant must have an income, and provide IHMS with proofs of that income from the income provider (employer, Social Security, pension, etc.) We do not accept IRS Form W-2's as proofs of income. |
| Income must be at, or below, 35% of the median income. |
As of March 1, 2005, the following are the income guidelines for IHMS services. These amounts are set by the Department of Housing and Urban Development and are revised each year. When calculating income include ALL INCOME from ALL SOURCES for ALL PEOPLE WHO ARE STAYING IN THE HOUSE, before taxes.
