The Federal Communnications Commission (FCC) has outsourced the ACP approvals to the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC) which may ask you to send them official documents as proof that your household participates in one of the above government programs when you apply for the ACP discount. USAC's National Verifier will verify your identity and eligibility against available state, federal, and other electronic databases. If the National Verifier is not able to validate your eligibility with the available eligibility databases, applicants will need to provide proof of eligibility. You will be provided with instructions on what documentation is needed during the application process.
