Your Daily Benefit
Heating oil jumps, a settlement opens a claim window, a state quietly expands a program. Your Daily Benefit is a short daily show that connects the news to the money it can mean for your household. Two hosts break down one government benefit or settlement at a time: what is going on, who may be eligible, and how to apply yourself, for free, through official channels. Every fact is checked against official sources. From the team @ BenefitBull.com

The Iran War and Your Basement Oil Tank [Up to $680 Est.]
Heating oil in Massachusetts costs about $6.19 a gallon, up 74 percent from a year ago, and a new one time Massachusetts oil benefit of up to $680 (estimated) may be available to middle income households that heat with oil this 2026 to 2027 season, with applications opening in December 2026. It is separate from HEAP, the state's regular heating help program, and if you live in another state you can find your LIHEAP program at usa.gov/help-with-energy-bills or 1-866-674-6327, free to apply.
