Frequently asked questions
Is my income saved or sent?
No. Your income is not saved or sent, and we never ask for your name or contact info. To improve the tool, we count anonymous answers, like your state and household size.
Why is my state not listed?
Program limits are published here for Texas, Minnesota, Indiana, Massachusetts, and part of Kentucky. Every other state still gets the national programs: Medicare Extra Help, the Medicare Savings Program federal floor, the LIHEAP rule, and, for household sizes 1 to 4 outside Alaska and Hawaii, a Marketplace premium tax credit check from 100 to 400 percent of poverty. Alaska, Hawaii, and larger households get a link to HealthCare.gov.
What about assets?
This checker does not compare savings or other assets. When a program lists an asset or resource limit, the card states that limit and its source. The agency applies its own test.
How do I apply?
Use Check on the official site on a program card. That link goes to the agency page. Benefit Bull does not submit applications for you. For a fuller list, you can start a free profile. No SSN.
This checker compares your numbers with published limits. It is not an eligibility decision. The program decides. Benefit Bull is a free private company, not a government agency, and never submits applications for you.
