Most carriers are listed and most include support for iMessage. However, Google Voice (or any variation) is not listed as a carrier at all which means it’s not a documented carrier that supports.

Google Voice is a free service that lets you merge multiple phone numbers into a single number that you can call or text from. You can set up a Google Voice account on either your computer. Thanks for updating the app, now the only thing missing is notifications of incoming texts do not show unless you have the google voice web page open. Can you make the extension push notifications to windows similar to how the hangouts extension worked. I am ok will going to the google voice web page to send texts. Just need reliable notifications. Google also plans to remove Google Voice support from Hangouts early next year, meaning you won’t be able to take calls from Voice in Hangouts. You’ll have to use the dedicated Voice app for.

Link Google Voice To Imessage
Phil fromGoogle Voice Imessage Problems
Phil is having issues with Google Voice, missing text messages, and voicemails. Leo says that Google has let Voice fall in quality since it bought it and may be moving away from it as a viable service. Even Hangouts isn't what it used to be. Leo used it when it was originally called Grand Central and it was great. But over the last year or so, it's really gotten hit or miss. Nowadays, Leo just uses it as a call forwarding service. But it may not be Google's fault. It may also be phone carriers who are engaging in anti-competitive behavior. Sadly, there is no real answer since Google is working on other voice options. So it's probably not going to get much better.
There are alternatives, such as Grasshopper. But he may have to pay a monthly fee for it.
