Lifeline

What it is:

LHTC Broadband offers a government assistance program to help make communications services more affordable for eligible low-income residential customers. This federal program is called Lifeline, and it lowers the monthly cost of phone or internet service. Eligible customers will receive a monthly credit toward their bill.

How to Qualify for Lifeline:

To see if you qualify, visit www.checklifeline.org or stop by your local LHTC Broadband office. You are only allowed to get one Lifeline benefit per household, not per person. If you qualify, your household can get one Lifeline benefit for phone or Internet service, but not both. Your household cannot get Lifeline from more than one company.  Lifeline is non-transferrable to another person or household.
