What People Are Saying...

“I wanted to let you know how useful your site is. As a social worker, I help people try to figure out what programs they may be eligible for and your site is incredibly easy and helpful. They walk away with the print-outs, which is so satisfying to some folks and gives me added credibility too!”

I think you'll find the BenefitsCheckUp website very helpful.

Just go to http://www.BenefitsCheckUp.org to learn about benefit programs you may be eligible for. You could receive help paying for prescription drugs, energy bills, property taxes, and more. If you are eligible for Medicare and have limited income and resources, you can also apply online for Extra Help available through Medicare's Prescription Drug Coverage. It’s simple, it's fast, and it's free!
