The Benefit Trim Score

Answer 10 quick questions. See every federal and state assistance program you likely qualify for — and what it could be worth per year.

What this tool does: screens your household against 20 major U.S. government assistance programs using your income, household size, age, disability, veteran, and student status, then returns a 0–100 Benefit Trim Score and an estimated total annual dollar value. Data used: published national average benefit figures per program. Typical outcome: most users match 4–7 programs worth an estimated $9,000–$26,000/year combined, and an estimated 60% of eligible households never claim every program they qualify for (see sourced article).
