FCC Announces Application Window for ACP Pilot Programs

The Federal Communications Commission's Wireline Competition Bureau announced that the "Your Home, Your Internet," and Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) Navigator Pilot Programs (collectively, Pilot Programs) application filing window will open November 21, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST) and will close on January 9, 2023, at 9:00 p.m. EST. The FCC created the two pilot programs to increase awareness of and facilitate enrollment in the ACP and to provide consumers assistance with ACP applications. The Your Home, Your Internet Pilot Program seeks to increase ACP awareness specifically among recipients of federal housing assistance, and to facilitate enrollment in the program by providing targeted assistance with the completion of the ACP application. The ACP Navigator Pilot Program will provide trusted, neutral third-party entities such as schools, school districts, or other local, state, or Tribal governmental entities with access to the National Verifier for purposes of assisting customers with applying for the ACP. The FCC seeks Pilot Programs applications from a broad range of eligible entities and diverse geographic regions.
