Do You Qualify for California LifeLine?
You may qualify if you or another person in your household is enrolled in a public assistance programs such as Medicaid/Medi-Cal or CalFresh — or your total annual income is at or less than 150% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines.
SafetyNet Wireless offers federal Lifeline and California LifeLine service, which are government benefit programs that provide discounts on monthly telephone service for eligible low-income consumers. If you are currently enrolled in a government assistance program, or have a household income below a certain threshold, you may qualify for the California Lifeline or federal Lifeline benefit.
You can read more about eligibility guidelines on our How To Qualify page.

We currently accept in-person applications for California LifeLine service at various locations throughout California. The number of locations is expected to expand rapidly over the coming weeks.
We are not able to accept applications over the phone or on-line at this time. We hope to offer these options soon.

When can re-certification be done?
The rules have changed. Recertification must be done prior to your Lifeline anniversary date each year. And it can’t be done until you are within 150 days of that date.
How do I recertify?
To remain eligible to participate in the Lifeline program, each calendar year, all subscribers must verify that they are still eligible for the program. You may recertify by mail, or if you are in California you can recertify online.
