Already a Lifeline Customer?

Reach out to your service provider directly to enroll in the program. You do not need to use the Apply Now button below.

If you are currently enrolled in the Lifeline program, you do not have to apply again for the Get Broadband. You can apply your Lifeline and Get Broadband to the same or separate services. Talk to your Lifeline provider about the services they may have available as part of Get Broadband, including options to apply the discounts to your existing Lifeline service, or contact another broadband provider participating in the Get Broadband Program to apply the benefit to a separate broadband service.

Already in a low-income or COVID-19 relief program with a non-Lifeline provider?

Reach out to your service provider directly to enroll in the program. You do not need to use the Apply Now button below.

If you do not participate in Lifeline but receive service from a participating provider that has its own low-income or COVID-19 relief program, you may not need to apply again for the Get Broadband. This option is only available if the provider obtained approval for its application process from the CHANGE HERE. Talk to your provider for more information.

Important: This is a Temporary
Program

Before you apply, it is important to understand that the Get Broadband Program will end when the fund runs out of money or six months after the Department of Health and Human Services declares an end to the COVID-19 health emergency, whichever is sooner. Participating households will need to opt-in to continue receiving broadband services from their provider after the program ends. If a household chooses to continue receiving service after the end of the Get Broadband Program, they will be billed the broadband provider’s general monthly rate.
