Update Information On The Winter Assistance Application:

by Mescalero Apache Tribe | December 3, 2025 2:11 pm

As we are receiving the Winter Assistance application, please be reminded of the following.

· If you are not the legal guardian of the child(ren), you must attach custody/legal guardian ship order. If these documents are not attached, it could delay processing.
· As in noted in #2 of the instructions: “2. All children with the same parent/legal guardian may be listed on the same Application. A child cannot be listed on more than one Application. You must attach the most recent custody/legal guardianship orders (if any).”

· If you are applying on behalf of an adult that is either incarcerated or has medical issues, you must attach a power of attorney to the application.
· If these documents are not attached, it could delay processing.

· If your child is over the age of 18, they must complete their own application.

Thank you for your cooperation and assistance.
