Current allowance, device cost and enrollment availability remain unverified for this listing.

Browse state guidance and learn what information to confirm with your provider.
A current model list and stock position were not exposed by the official page. Check the exact device offer after selecting the service location; a directory listing is not a handset reservation.
Required Documents — General Lifeline Guidance
Program route: a current benefit letter, statement or benefits-portal record identifying the participant, program and issuing organization.
Income route: an accepted tax return, annual income statement or three consecutive months of income records. Follow the documentation request for dates and household members.
Identity and address: provide accepted proof if the application cannot verify these automatically.
Household information: an additional worksheet may be needed when separate households share an address. Submit documents only through the official application process.
Application Information — General Lifeline Guidance
In most states, apply through the official Lifeline application system, by mail, or with help from a participating company. Oregon and Texas use state processes.
Provide additional documents if the eligibility review requests them.
After approval, choose a participating company and enroll. Program approval and starting a service plan are separate steps.
