PO Boxes/Nursing Homes

& Coupon Requests

QUICK FACTS

Highlights of the News Release:

The Secretary of Commerce announced on September 16, 2008 that

residents of licensed nursing homes, intermediate care facilities, assisted

living facilities and households that use a post office box for mail delivery

will be eligible to request coupons from the TV Converter Box Coupon

Program. This affects the NTIA Coupon Program and the rule change took

effect October 20, 2008.

This allows nursing home residents to request and receive one coupon. It

also allows households that rely on a post office box for their mail to

request two coupons to be mailed to their P.O. box.

Rules: The Digital Television Transition and Public Safety Act of 2005

Applicants living in licensed nursing homes, intermediate care facilities and assisted living

facilities can request and receive ONE coupon. They will be required to provide their name, the

name and address of the facility, and whether they receive television exclusively with an

antenna, or through cable, satellite or other pay television service. A family member or a

representative from the licensed facility may apply for the nursing home resident. Applications

will be accepted by mail ONLY. Applicants may use a new pre-printed form or applicants may

use a letter if it includes all the required waiver information. The coupon will be mailed to the

resident “in care of” the facility.

Applicants who utilize a post office box for mail delivery will be able to request two coupons

through the normal application process. While the coupons can now be mailed to an applicant’s

post office box, the applicant is required to provide the street address of their physical residence

in addition to their post office box number on the application form.
