Have you heard the rumors about free cell phones for welfare recipients? People have been talking about how millions of Americans can now get a free cell phone and even free talk, text, and data.
The rumors are true. The federal government recently approved billions of dollars to help low-income Americans get fast, cheap internet. In addition, the government is working with internet providers to make these benefits widely available.
How Do I Get a Free Cell Phone?
EASY Wireless is one of the cell phones approved by the U.S. Government to bring these benefits to deserving Americans. For over 20 years, they have made cell phone service available through government programs using America’s fastest and most reliable network.
This article will help you find out if you are one of the 48 million Americans who can qualify for free government benefits and how to get your free cell phone with free internet data.
What are the programs?
Two government programs assist Americans who may need help paying their cell phone bills. They are called the Lifeline Program and The Affordable Connectivity Program.
What is the Lifeline program?
The Lifeline Assistance Program is a benefit that assists low-income Americans to have access to voice services. Providers offering this service can provide talk, text, and data to eligible consumers.
If you are already receiving one of the following benefits or meet the income requirements, you can easily qualify for the Lifeline Program:
Qualifying programs for the Lifeline Programs:
- Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)
- Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
- Medicaid
- Federal Public Housing Assistance
- Tribal-specific programs: Bureau of Indian Affairs General Assistance, Tribally-Administered Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TTANF), Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR), Head Start
- Income at or below 135% of the income threshold for assistance.
The Affordable Connectivity Program
This newest program is designed so that all Americans have access to the internet. The federal government recognized that access to the internet is a necessity and they have made it even easier to qualify for this benefit. It is estimated that 40% of the households in the United States can qualify for this program. Providers offering this benefit can offer data services to eligible households. Qualify For the ACP
While many of these programs are the same for both Lifeline and ACP, there are some programs below unique to the ACP Prog.
Qualifying Programs for the ACP:
- Qualify for Lifeline
- National School Lunch Program (NSLP)
- Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)
- Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (Food Stamps or SNAP)
- Supplemental Security Income
- Federal Public Housing Assistance
- Veterans and Survivors Pension Benefit
- Tribal-specific programs: Bureau of Indian Affairs General Assistance, Tribally-Administered Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TTANF), Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR), Head Start
- Income at or below 200% of the income threshold for assistance.
While many of these programs are the same for both Lifeline and ACP and can qualify you for either or both programs, there are some benefits listed that are unique to the ACP Program. If you qualify using National School Lunch, WIC, Pell Grant, or Income at the 200% level, you won’t qualify for Lifeline, but you will qualify for the ACP, which provides you with much of the same benefit.

Here is a chart that shows you the income levels you need to be under to qualify for the programs.
