Application Verizon Lifeline PDF Details

The Verizon Lifeline Assistance Application Form includes a meticulous framework to support new and existing customers in applying for the Lifeline program—a federally aided initiative aimed at making telecommunications services more affordable for low-income households. This form captures essential information, starting with personal details and residency status to ensure applicants meet the geographical requirements. Importantly, it addresses eligibility criteria based on participation in specific public assistance programs or total household income, requiring documentary evidence to substantiate claims of eligibility. For residents of Tribal lands, additional sections highlight specific benefits and eligibility conditions pertinent to these areas. Prompting applicants to certify the accuracy and truthfulness of the provided information under penalty of perjury, the form underscores the legal obligations and potential consequences of fraudulent claims. This comprehensive tool not only guides applicants through the submission process but also ensures compliance with regulatory standards for accessing the Lifeline discount, which varies depending on whether the applicant resides in federally recognized Tribal lands or elsewhere in the coverage area. By offering detailed instructions and requiring various forms of identification and proof of benefits, the form serves as a critical step in connecting eligible individuals and families with vital communication services, thereby supporting broader federal goals of universal service.

SECTION 4 – APPLICANT CERTIFICATION AND AGREEMENT

Lifeline is a federal benefit and willfully making false statements to obtain Lifeline can result in fines, imprisonment, de-enrollment or being barred from the program. Lifeline is non-transferable and you may not transfer this discount to any other person. Only one Lifeline discount is available per household and a household is not permitted to receive Lifeline discounts from multiple providers. A household is defined, for purposes of the Lifeline program, as any individual or group of individuals who live together at the same address and share income and expenses. Violation of the one-per-household limitation constitutes a violation of the Federal Communication Commission’s rules and will result in de-enrollment from the program, and could result in criminal prosecution.

EACH OF THE FOLLOWING CERTIFICATIONS MUST BE INITIALED IN ORDER TO RECEIVE LIFELINE.

I CERTIFY UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY:

That I meet the income-based or program-based eligibility criteria for receiving Lifeline.

That I will notify Verizon Wireless within 30 days if I no longer meet the income-based or program-based criteria for receiving Lifeline, if I, or another member of my household is receiving Lifeline, or if for any reason I no longer satisfy the criteria for receiving Lifeline.

That if I am seeking to qualify for Lifeline as an eligible resident of Tribal lands, I live on Tribal land.

That if I move to a new address, I will provide my new residential address to Verizon Wireless within 30 days.

That my household will receive only one Lifeline discount and, to the best of my knowledge, my household is not already receiving a Lifeline discount.

That the information contained in this certification form is true and correct to the best of my knowledge.

That I acknowledge that providing false or fraudulent information to receive Lifeline is punishable by law and may subject me to fines, imprisonment or being barred from the program.

That I acknowledge that I may be required to recertify my continued eligibility for Lifeline at

LIFELINE ASSISTANCE

Qualifying customers will save $9.25 per month off of the monthly access charge. Qualified residents of federally recognized Tribal lands may receive up to $25 in additional Lifeline discounts per month.

You will not be charged a service deposit to initiate Lifeline. However, you may be required to bring your account current if you incur charges materially in excess of your monthly access. Failure to bring your account current may result in a suspension or termination of your service.

Your equipment charges will appear on your first month’s bill unless you will be using equipment that has previously been paid for and is compatible with the Verizon Wireless network.

International Long Distance is not a part of the Lifeline plans. Your Lifeline device may not be used to make International Long Distance calls. Access to “900” numbers is prohibited. Use of the service to make prohibited calls can result in the curtailment or termination of service.

Your first bill will include one full month’s access charge in advance and a portion of the current month’s access charge which is calculated based on the activation date. Your Lifeline discount will also be applied accordingly.

The Lifeline discount is limited to a single line of service. You may not apply for multiple Lifeline discounts and must choose to apply your Lifeline discount to either a landline or wireless number, but not both. Please note that other service providers may use terms other than “Lifeline” to describe the Lifeline program. By signing this application, you are certifying, under penalty of perjury, that you will comply with this requirement. Lifeline is only available to a subscriber whose residential address is located within Verizon Wireless’ Lifeline service area. Lifeline may not be applied retroactively.

You must pay all sales, excise and other taxes and governmental surcharges and fees that we are required by law to bill customers. These taxes, surcharges and fees may change from time to time without notice. However, Lifeline subscribers will not be assessed a Federal Universal Service Fund or Regulatory charge.

Other restrictions may apply.
