Is my household eligible for ACP?

To qualify, your household must have an income at or below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines or include a member of the home who meets the ACP criteria. Qualifying criteria include participation in other government assistance programs, such as SNAP, Medicaid, SSI, WIC, Federal Public Housing Assistance, or Lifeline. The best way to know if your household qualifies is to confirm eligibility through the federal government's National Verifier site.
