Lifeline Support
What is Lifeline Support?
Lifeline support lowers the cost of basic, monthly local telephone service. An eligible customer may receive the Lifeline discount on either a wireline or wireless connection, but the discount is available for only one telephone connection per household. Lifeline does not apply to taxes, surcharges, and mileage charges.
- Non-tribal Customers
Eligible consumers can receive up to $10 per month in Lifeline discounts. Additional state support may be available.
- Tribal Customers
Eligible residents of Indian reservations or tribal lands can receive up to an additional $25 in Lifeline discounts, but must pay at least $1 for basic monthly service.
