About Lifeline  \nLifeline is a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) program that provides a monthly phone or internet service discount for qualifying low-income consumers.  \nRules  \nIf you qualify, your household can receive a monthly Lifeline benefit of up to $9.25 to lower the costs of phone or internet service and up to $34.25 for qualifying households on Tribal lands.  \n• If you get Lifeline for phone service, you can get the benefit for one mobile phone or one home phone, but not both.  \n• If you get Lifeline for internet service, you can get the benefit for your mobile phone or your home connection, but not both.  \n• If you get Lifeline for bundled phone and internet service, you can get the benefit for your mobile phone bundled service or your home bundled service, but not both.  \nYour household cannot get Lifeline from more than one phone or internet company. You are only allowed to get one Lifeline benefit per household, not per person.  \nWhat is a household?  \nA household is a group of people who live together and share income and expenses (even if they are not related to each other) . Complete the Lifeline household worksheet to determine if more than one qualifying household is located at your address. If more than one person in your household participates in Lifeline, you are breaking the FCC’s rules and will lose your benefit.  \nDo not give your benefit to another person  \nLifeline is non-transferable. You cannot give your Lifeline benefit to another person, even if they qualify.  \nBe honest on this form  \nYou must give accurate and true information on this form and on all Lifeline-related forms or questionnaires. If you give false or fraudulent information, you will lose your Lifeline benefit (i.e., de-enrollment or being barred from the program) and the United States government can take legal actions against you. This may include (but is not limited to) fines or imprisonment.  \nYou may need to show other documents  \nIf the Lifeline Program Administrator is not able to validate that you or someone in your household qualify by checking available electronic resources (including eligibility databases for the FCC’s government agency partners), you may need to provide additional documents. For example, you may need to provide an official document that proves your participation in a qualifying government assistance program, your income, or your identity. Please include copies of your proof documentation when you submit your application to speed up processing time.  \n\n| Apply\u003Cbr>To apply for a Lifeline benefit, fill out the required sections of this form, initial every agreement statement, and sign on page 6.
