Leveraging New Jersey's Medicaid program for a free smartphone.
NJ FamilyCare is New Jersey's publicly funded health insurance program (Medicaid and CHIP). Because it is a Medicaid program, active enrollment in NJ FamilyCare makes you 100% eligible for a free Lifeline cellular plan and device.
When filling out your Lifeline application, you will need to upload proof of your health insurance. You can take a clear, well-lit photograph of the front of your NJ FamilyCare card (ensuring your name is readable), or you can upload an official acceptance letter dated within the last 12 months.
Most households qualify through income or a program like SNAP, Medicaid, or SSI. Check eligibility →
