The Illinois Solar for All (ILSFA) Program Administrator has updated the eligibility thresholds required for income verification of households participating in the Illinois Solar for All: Residential Solar and Illinois Solar for All: Community Solar sub-programs.
As required by law, specifically 20ILCS 3855/1-56(b), participation in the ILSFA program is limited to persons and families whose income does not exceed 80% of Area Median Income (AMI), adjusted for family size and revised every five years. The income eligibility thresholds for previous ILSFA program years were established using 2017 data, and the ILSFA income eligibility thresholds are now updated using 2022 data.
Use of the 2022 80% AMI thresholds will be required as of September 1, 2022. The Program Administrator will validate income verification based on the date of the signature on the Certification and Consent form. Any Certification and Consent forms signed before September 1, 2022, will be subject to the previous income thresholds, and any signed after September 1, 2022, will be subject to the current income thresholds.
