Government Benefits in Utah

Where Utah residents apply for SNAP, Medicaid, and home energy assistance, plus every nationwide program available to everyone.

3 Utah Programs

How This Works

SNAP, Medicaid, and LIHEAP are federal programs, but each state runs its own application portal and sets some of its own rules — including, for Medicaid, whether the state expanded eligibility to more adults under the Affordable Care Act. The cards below link you straight to Utah's official application system for each program. Exact income limits change with annual poverty-guideline updates, so we intentionally don't publish a specific number here — the portal will show your exact cutoff for your household size.
