the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
This collection of information is
necessary, pursuant to 12 U.S.C. Sec.
635(a)(1), to determine whether or not a
company has a good payment history.
This form will enable EXIM to make
a credit decision on a foreign buyer
credit limit request submitted by a new
or existing policy holder. Additionally,
this form is used by those EXIM policy
holders granted delegated authority to
commit the Bank to a foreign buyer
credit limit.
DATES: Comments should be received on
or before April 8, 2019 to be assured of
consideration.
ADDRESSES: Comments may be

Federal Communications
Commission.
ACTION: Notice of a new matching
program.
AGENCY:
In accordance with the
Privacy Act of 1974, as amended
(‘‘Privacy Act’’), this notice announces
the establishment of a computer
matching program the Federal
Communications Commission (‘‘FCC’’
or ‘‘Commission’’ or ‘‘Agency’’) and the
Universal Service Administrative
Company (USAC) will conduct with
four non-Federal agencies. The purpose
of this matching program is to verify the
eligibility of applicants to and
subscribers of the Universal Service
Fund (USF) Lifeline program, which is
administered by USAC under the
direction of the FCC. More information
about this program is provided in the
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section
below.
SUMMARY:
Written comments are due on or
before March 7, 2019. This computer
matching program will commence on
March 7, 2019, unless comments are
received that require a contrary
determination, and will conclude on
August 5, 2020.
ADDRESSES: Send comments to Mr.
Leslie F. Smith, Privacy Manager,
Information Technology (IT), Room 1–
C216, FCC, 445 12th Street SW,

Company (USAC) under FCC direction.
Consumers qualify for Lifeline through
proof of income or participation in a
qualifying program, such as Medicaid,
the Supplemental Nutritional
Assistance Program (SNAP), Federal
Public Housing Assistance,
Supplemental Security Income (SSI),
Veterans and Survivors Pension Benefit,
or various Tribal-specific federal
assistance programs. In a Report and
Order adopted on March 31, 2016, the
Commission ordered USAC to create a
National Lifeline Eligibility Verifier
(‘‘National Verifier’’), including the
National Lifeline Eligibility Database
(LED), that would match data about
Lifeline applicants and subscribers with
other data sources to verify the
eligibility of an applicant or subscriber.
The Commission found that the
National Verifier would reduce
compliance costs for Lifeline service
providers, improve service for Lifeline
subscribers, and reduce waste, fraud,
and abuse in the program.
Participating Non-Federal Agencies
• Indiana Family and Social Services
Administration, Division of Family
Resources;
• Kentucky Cabinet for Health and
Family Services, Division of Family
Support;
• Michigan Department of Health and
Human Services: And
• Puerto Rico Department of the

National Verifier is ‘‘to increase the
integrity and improve the performance
of the Lifeline program for the benefit of
a variety of Lifeline participants,
including Lifeline providers,
subscribers, states, community-based
organizations, USAC, and the
Commission.’’ 31 FCC Rcd 3962, 4006,
para. 126. To help determine whether
Lifeline applicants and subscribers are
eligible for Lifeline benefits, the Order
contemplates that a USAC-operated

program include, but are not limited to,
those individuals (residing in a single
household) who have applied for
Lifeline benefits; are currently receiving
Lifeline benefits; are individuals who
enable another individual in their
household to qualify for Lifeline
benefits; are minors whose status
qualifies a parent or guardian for
Lifeline benefits; are individuals who
have received Lifeline benefits; or are
individuals acting on behalf of an
eligible telecommunications carrier
(ETC) who have enrolled individuals in
the Lifeline program.

The categories of records involved in
the matching program include, but are
not limited to, a Lifeline applicant or
subscriber’s full name; physical and

data elements to the source agencies,
which will respond either ‘‘yes’’ or ‘‘no’’
that the individual is enrolled in a
Lifeline-qualifying assistance program.
