Dear Ms. Noriyuki:
Pursuant to the Federal Communications Commission's Report and Ordertrequiring
eligible telecommunications carriers to re-certiff the eligibility of their Lifeline subscribers and
to report the results to the Federal communications Commission, Universal Service
Administrative Company and to the state commission and Tribal govemments, CenturyLink QC
(Southern Idaho) hereby submits its202l Lifeline re-certification results for the state of Idaho.
Please note that the results are provided separately for each FCC study area. In addition,
the numbers being reported this year are mostly zero as we are no longer handling the
verifications and recertifications. The Lifeline National Eligibility Verifier (National Verifier)
has taken over these functions for all states exce,pt the Opt-Out states of Oregon and Texas. Per
USAC's instructions, we are still completing and filing the Form 555 reports; only we are filling
thern in with zeros where the National Verifier has taken over.
Please do not hesitate to contact me at (303) 992-5810 or via email at
timothy.kunkleman@lumen.com should you have any questions regarding this filing.
Sincerely,
lsl Timothy D. Kunkleman
