Subscribers may receive a Lifeline discount on either a wireline or a wireless service, but they may not receive a discount on both services at the same time. Lifeline also supports broadband Internet access service and broadband- voice bundles. FCC rules prohibit more than one Lifeline service per household. Lifeline is available to eligible low-income consumers in every state, commonwealth, territory, and on Tribal lands. The Lifeline program is administered by the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC). USAC is responsible for data collection and maintenance, support calculation, disbursements, and assisting consumers with Lifeline eligibility and enrollment for the program. USAC's website provides additional information regarding the program, including program requirements. To participate in the Lifeline program, consumers must either have an income that is at or below 135% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines or participate in certain federal assistance programs, such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or Medicaid. You can see if you are eligible by reviewing the information available at lifelinesupport.org (see "Do I Qualify?").”5 School districts can support their families in enrolling for the Lifeline Discount program by helping them fill out an application online or assisting them by printing and sending through mail (more information here). After completing enrollment they can direct family members (here) to assist them in determining the providers in their area who accept Lifeline discounts. 5 https://www.fcc.gov/consumers/guides/lifeline-support-affordable-communications 4 ISP by county in Texas School districts may wish to reference the information below to direct families to the internet service providers who service their county.
