featured qualifying government programs
Eligibility varies from state to state, but you may qualify for American Assistance if you qualify for any of the following government programs.
We offer several plans based on the state that you reside in. All plans include FREE Voice Minutes, FREE Text messages, and FREE Data. There are no bills, long-term contracts, or activation fees for qualified Lifeline customers.
The Lifeline Assistance program is brought to you by American Broadband & Telecommunications and is supported by the Universal Service Fund. Lifeline is only available on one phone line per household (landline or wireless). Lifeline is available in limited geographic areas.
The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) is a new Government program that is designed to help low-income households pay for internet service and connected devices. ACP helps you upgrade your service plan and stay connected to job opportunities, schools, health care providers and friends and family.
Federal guidelines require you to “recertify” your eligibility to participate in the Lifeline program. You should receive a letter, phone call, or text message asking you to recertify. For more information, please contact the National Verifier at 800-234-9473 or go to www.lifelinesupport.org.

Although eligibility varies by state, you may qualify for Lifeline if you participate in Medicaid, Food Stamps/SNAP, Social Security Income (SSI), or other government programs.
You may be required to provide proof of eligibility.
If your income is 135% of the National Poverty Income Guideline you can qualify for Lifeline services.
In Michigan, and other Federal Default States, your income can qualify you at 150% of the National Poverty Income Guideline.
