Fair Entry is a program that ensures that all Medicine Hat residents have reasonable access to a range of Public Services. The Fair Entry program is designed to assist low-income families/individuals to access programs and supports throughout the city for up to 12 months.
To qualify for the Fair Entry Program, you must be a resident of Medicine Hat, and demonstrate your need for assistance. This is done by providing proof of your address, and documents to assess your income level(s).
If your total household income falls below the low income cut off, you will be approved for access to the Fair Entry program subsidy/subsidies.
The Low Income Cut Off (LICO) scale is set by Statistics Canada and updated annually.
An additional $50 fair entry credit will be distributed for six months of the year through utility accounts held in the applicant's name.
Credits will be automatically applied to utility accounts based on the date of the Fair Entry Application. Retroactive payments will be applied for missed eligible months.
Implementation will occur in February 2023 and credits will be applied for January, February, March, July, August and September.
