ACP Wind-Down
The Affordable Connectivity Program stopped accepting new applications and enrollments on February 7, 2024. Those who are were enrolled prior to February 7th, will maintain their benefit until ACP funds run out as long as the household remains enrolled and eligible for the benefit.
​
​
What should ACP households expect?
All households enrolled in the ACP will continue to receive the benefit on their internet service until ACP funding, which is currently projected through April 2024, runs out.
During the ACP wind-down period, ACP households will receive notices from their internet company about the impact of the end of the benefit on the household’s bill and service. ACP households will also receive notices from the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC), the administrator of the ACP.
ACP households may also switch their internet plans without penalty.
