Submit Proof Help Center

In order to qualify for the Lifeline Program, you may need to submit copies of proof of identity, proof of participation in a government program, or proof of income. We will never share or distribute your personal information under any circumstance.

Proof documents are copies of your documents that show you are currently eligible to receive Lifeline service. By sending your proof documents we are able to verify your eligibility and identity, and connect you to the Q Link Wireless network.

If you participate in more than one government program, you only need to upload a copy of proof showing participation in ONE of the programs. Please only send a copy, NEVER send the original document to Q Link Wireless. If you need help obtaining copies, you can always visit your local library.
