Lifeline Recertification Waiver Extended to Sept. 30

The FCC Wireline Bureau extended to Sept. 30 the deadline for Lifeline documentation requirements for subscribers in rural areas on tribal lands, including reverification, recertification, de-enrollment and income, said an order in Monday’s Daily Digest. The bureau directed the Universal Service Administrative Co. to not de-enroll any subscriber for failing to respond to a documentation request if the given deadline was on or before Sept. 30. The bureau previously extended the deadline to June 30 (see 2102250022).
