Qualifying households enjoyed a discount of up $50 (or $75 on Tribal Lands) a month towards broadband services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spectrum is one of the mobile virtual network providers (MVNO) offering the EBB discount on behalf of the FCC. Since it operates on the Verizon network, Spectrum Mobile is available nationwide, offering reliable 4G LTE and 5G connectivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You cannot join the Emergency Broadband Benefit Spectrum since it has been replaced by the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP). Even so, this article describes how to qualify and apply for the EBB discount courtesy of Spectrum Mobile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Does Spectrum EBB\/ACP Works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As already alluded to, Spectrum is a nationwide wireless network that covers 70% of the U.S. territory and reaches over 90% of the population. In addition, the company offers internet, mobile phone, home phone, and cable TV services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, it participates in the EBB\/ACP as an internet provider. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the company offered a $50 monthly credit on household internet bills. People living on qualifying Tribal Lands got a $75 monthly discount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides, eligible households also got a free tablet if they didn\u2019t have one. Moreover, the internet speeds on the 4G network were at least 30 Mbps, which is fast enough to download content and stream videos online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spectrum Mobile offers home Wi-Fi broadband on some of its service plans, making it possible to share the internet with others in the household. The good thing with Spectrum Mobile is that it has no-contract services. As a result, it doesn\u2019t tie you down to the network when you want to shift to another one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the Emergency Broadband Benefit Spectrum, you can get fixed internet services on desktop computers, laptops, and tablets. So, you don\u2019t need any unique device to benefit from the discount. But, of course, you can apply for a free or discounted tablet if you need one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Spectrum EBB\/ACP Available in U.S. States<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Given that its network is nationwide, Spectrum Mobile offers the <span style=\"color: var(--ast-global-color-2); font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, &quot;Segoe UI&quot;, Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 1rem; background-color: var(--ast-global-color-5);\">EBB\/ACP<\/span> discount in many U.S. states.

Qualifying households were required to have an income of $99,000 or below for 2020 for single-member households.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Joint filers were required to have an income of $198,000 or below. Remember, the loss of revenue could have been due to a job loss due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In that case, you must attach a furlough notice or termination letter, tax returns, and other documents with income information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Child of Dependent Benefits<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Do any children or dependents participate in a free or reduced-price lunch program? That\u2019s enough to help you qualify for the EBB from Spectrum Mobile. Other programs include the USDA Community Eligibility Provision or school breakfast program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You only need one household member to participate in any of these programs. For example, a child could benefit from the free and reduced-price school lunch program. All you need is to provide documentation proving your loved one\u2019s participation in is of these programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Even better, students on several forms of assistance could qualify for a free laptop from the EBB program on the following conditions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>A beneficiary of the Federal Pell Grant in the last 12 months<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enrolling with a broadband provider with a COVID-19 relief or low-income program<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Low-Income Status<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, qualifying households needed an income of up to 135% of Federal government poverty guidelines. The actual income figures depend on your household size. When applying for Spectrum EBB, you\u2019ll need proof of income. Due to the introduction of the ACP, the qualification criteria have since changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Documents Required to Provide EBB\/ACP<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Application for Emergency Broadband Benefit Spectrum involves providing documentation to prove your eligibility. The required documents depend on how you qualify for the discount. The following are the various categories of documents to attach to your EBB application:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.
