The Lifeline/Nebraska Telephone Assistance Program (NTAP) assists qualifying low-income individuals with keeping telephone services affordable by lowering monthly service rates.

Individuals can qualify for Lifeline/NTAP by participating in Medicaid, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Veterans Pension Benefit/Survivors Pension Benefit, Federal Public Housing Assistance, or if household income is at or below 135 percent of the poverty level.
