Ontario Electricity Support Program
The Ontario Energy Board offers a monthly credit to be applied to your Electricity Bill. The credit depends on two factors:
- How many people live in your home
- Combined household income
At East York Housing Help Centre, we can help you by filling out a manual income verification form with our OESP worker. You may also use our client self-help center to fill out the application online.
