Easy Wireless’ Lifeline service is a government benefit program only available to individuals who participate in a qualifying government program or who are income eligible based on household income eligibility standards.

  • Only one wireless or landline Lifeline account is allowed per household.
  • Households are not permitted to receive benefits from multiple providers.
  • Violation of the one per household requirement will result in de-enrollment from the Lifeline program.

What do I need to apply for Lifeline or ACP service?

    • The National Verifier will run your identity through an identity check. If your identity is not found, the NV application may ask for proof of identity (non-expired Driver’s License) or proof of last 4 SSN (social security card or tax return). 

    • The NV application will run your information through available Medicaid, HUD, and SNAP databases, where available. If you are not found in a program database, proof of eligibility will be required.

What if I have service with another provider?

If you are currently receiving service with another provider, you can sign up for service with Easy Wireless. The order will transfer your Lifeline and ACP benefit from the other company over to Easy, cancelling your account with them. If you are enrolled with another pre-paid provider, we can port your number over so that you can keep your same number, or we can provide you with a new number.

What is the National Verifier?

The National Verifier (NV) is the federal government’s Lifeline and ACP application system. The government uses this application system to determine whether consumers are eligible for the Lifeline and/or ACP programs. Once the consumer is eligible, they can receive service from the company of their choice. USAC manages the NV and provides customer service to consumers to through the National Verifier Support Center.

Customers are required to have an approved NV application prior to Easy Wireless being able to offer the service. Need help? Come see us at one of our locations, or call or chat our customer service team, and we will be happy to help with your NV Application!

What do I do when I’m done applying through the National Verifier website?

Once you have an approved application, call 888-792-0076 to provide your Application ID (begins with a Q or a B) to Easy Wireless and we can connect your service and ship out your phone or SIM card.

What types of proof of Social Security do you accept?

In some cases, the National Verifier application may ask you for proof of Social, in which case, a social security card, W2, or recent tax return will prove the last 4 SSN for the NV application. Easy Wireless does not retain this information.

What is the Household Worksheet, and where can I find it?

In some cases, the National Verifier application will give a “Duplicate Address” error. This means someone at this address is already receiving the Lifeline or ACP benefit. Completing the Household Worksheet will resolve the error. Go to nv.fcc.gov to create a National Verifier application. The application will include additional questions such as “Does another adult live at the address with you?” “Does this person share income and expenses with you?” Answer these questions truthfully to complete the worksheet.
