Qalipu First Nation Housing Division is pleased to announce the launch of the Seniors Emergency Home Repair Assistance Program, designed to help senior homeowners safely remain in their homes during urgent situations. The program provides financial support for critical home repairs that, if left unaddressed, could make a home unsafe or unlivable.

The program provides up to $5,000 in financial assistance for critical repairs. It is open to Qalipu First Nation members aged 55 and older living in Newfoundland and Labrador. Applicants must submit all required supporting documentation, and it is strongly recommended that all applicants and co-applicants review the application in its entirety to ensure that it is complete before submission. Incomplete applications will not be processed.

To qualify, applicants combined annual household net income must not exceed the following:

Number of Persons in the Household	Combined Income Eligibility
1 Person	$51,000
2 Persons	$88,674
3 Persons	$120,966
4 Persons	$148,474
5 Persons	$154,454

Applications will be assessed on a first-come, first-served basis, and will be accepted until all program funding is exhausted.
