other data sources to verify the 

eligibility of an applicant or subscriber. 

The Commission found that the 

National Verifier would reduce 

compliance costs for Lifeline service 

providers, improve service for Lifeline 

subscribers, and reduce waste, fraud, 

and abuse in the program. 

The Consolidated Appropriations Act 

of 2021 directs the FCC to leverage the 

National Verifier to verify applicants’ 

eligibility for ACP. The purpose of this 

matching program is to verify the 

eligibility of Lifeline and ACP 

applicants and subscribers by 

determining whether they receive SNAP 

and Medicaid benefits administered by 

the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and 

Family Services, Department for 

Community Based Services. 

Participating Agencies 

Kentucky Cabinet for Health and 

Family Services, Department for 

Community Based Services (source 

agency); Federal Communications 

Commission (recipient agency) and 

Universal Service Administrative 

Company. 

Authority for Conducting the Matching 

Program 

The authority to conduct the 

matching program for the FCC’s ACP is 

47 U.S.C. 1752(a)–(b). The authority to 

conduct the matching program for the 

FCC’s Lifeline program is 47 U.S.C. 

254(a)–(c), (j). 

Purpose(s) 

The purpose of this new matching 

agreement is to verify the eligibility of 

applicants and subscribers to Lifeline, 

as well as to ACP and other Federal 

programs that use qualification for 

Lifeline as an eligibility criterion. This 

new agreement will permit eligibility 

verification for the Lifeline program and 

ACP by checking an applicant’s/ 

subscriber’s participation in SNAP and 

Medicaid in Kentucky. Under FCC 

rules, consumers receiving these 

benefits qualify for Lifeline discounts 

and also for ACP benefits. 

Categories of Individuals 

The categories of individuals whose 

information is involved in the matching 

program include, but are not limited to, 

those individuals who have applied for 

Lifeline and/or ACP benefits; are 

currently receiving Lifeline and/or ACP 

benefits; are individuals who enable 

another individual in their household to 

qualify for Lifeline and/or ACP benefits; 

are minors whose status qualifies a 

parent or guardian for Lifeline and/or 

ACP benefits; or are individuals who 

have received Lifeline and/or ACP 

benefits. 

Categories of Records 

The categories of records involved in 

the matching program include, but are 

not limited to, the last four digits of the 

applicant’s Social Security Number, 

date of birth, and first and last name. 

The National Verifier will transfer these 

data elements to the Kentucky Cabinet 

for Health and Family Services, 

Department for Community Based 

Services which will respond either 

‘‘yes’’ or ‘‘no’’ that the individual is 

enrolled in a qualifying assistance 

program: SNAP and Medicaid 

administered by the Kentucky Cabinet 

for Health and Family Services, 

Department for Community Based 

Services. 

System(s) of Records 

The records shared as part of this 

matching program reside in the Lifeline 

system of records, FCC/WCB–1, 

Lifeline, which was published in the 

Federal Register at 86 FR 11526 (Feb. 

25, 2021).

Board published a notice in the Federal 

Register (88 FR 46161) requesting 

public comment for 60 days on the 

extension, with revision, of the FR Y–

to revise the FR Y–12 and FR Y–12A

clarifying recordkeeping requirements, 

clarifying the reported amount of a 

firm’s aggregate nonfinancial equity 

investment, clarifying which columns 

are applicable to certain FR Y–12 

schedules, and aligning the two reports’ 

submission deadlines. The comment 

period for this notice expired on 

September 18, 2023. The Board did not 

receive any comments. The revisions 

will be implemented as originally 

proposed.
