This program removes the sewer charges from your water bill if you:

  • Are 65 years old or older
  • Live in the city of Chicago
  • Live in your own home

If you do not own your home, you may still qualify for an annual $50 rebate. A rebate is money you'll get back later after paying the bill.


How do I apply?

To apply, you can print and fill out an application form and send it to your local office.
