The FCC has adopted an Order that will provide up to a $75 monthly broadband benefit for subscribers living in qualifying high-cost areas through the Affordable Connectivity Program. To make use of this broadband benefit, ACP participating providers must make a particularized economic hardship showing that the standard $30 monthly benefit is insufficient in their high-cost area. Providers approved to offer the $75 monthly broadband benefit will be required to annually resubmit an economic hardship showing to continue offering that enhanced benefit in their high-cost area(s).
