SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Lifeline program provides support for
discounted broadband and voice
services to low-income consumers.
Lifeline is administered by the
Universal Service Administrative
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 the Consolidated Appropriations
Act, 2021, Public Law 116–260, 134
Stat. 1182, 2129–36 (2020), Congress
created the Emergency Broadband
Benefit Program, and directed use of the
National Verifier to determine eligibility
based on various criteria, including the
qualifications for Lifeline (Medicaid,
SNAP, etc.). EBBP provided $3.2 billion
in monthly consumer discounts for
broadband service and one-time
provider reimbursement for a connected
device (laptop, desktop computer or
tablet). In the Infrastructure Investment
and Jobs Act, Public Law 117–58, 135
Stat. 429, 1238–44 (2021) (codified at 47
U.S.C. 1751–52), Congress modified and
extended EBBP, provided an additional
$14.2 billion, and renamed it the
Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP).
A household may qualify for the ACP
benefit under various criteria, including
an individual qualifying for the FCC’s
Lifeline program.
In a Report and Order adopted on
March 31, 2016, (81 FR 33026, May 24,
2016) (2016 Lifeline Modernization
Order), 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
