Final Few Days to Post Year 6 470
~ 46 Districts in PA Haven't Filed: Listed Below ~
Message Posted January 6, 2003
This is a final reminder to School Districts, AVTS, and Charter Schools that these are the absolute final days to post an E-rate Form 470 and still have time to file a Form 471 before the February 6 deadline. Kudos to the many nentities that have filed since the last reminder (and to the entities that have already filed 509 Form 471s). We still have about 46 Districts, 32 AVTSs and most of the charter schools that have yet to file Form 470's. The districts are listed below in IU order so you can identify your neighbors that haven't applied (give them a call!)
The final deadline to post a Year 6 Form 470 is Wednesday, January 8. PLEASE DON'T WAIT UNTIL JAN 8 TO FILE, BECAUSE THAT WILL ONLY GIVE YOU ONE DAY (FEBRUARY 6) TO EVALUATE YOUR BID RESPONSES, SELECT VENDORS, SIGN CONTRACTS (IF ANY), AND COMPLETE AND SUBMIT YOUR 471.
(Yes, there is a remote chance that your name is on this list, but you don't need to file a 470. But that's only if you have multi-year contracts for ALL of your E-rate eligible services (and very few schools do) or if someone else is your billed entity (as is the case for some AVTS). If you are in a consortium with your IU for Internet Access and your name is listed, that's because you haven't posted a 470 for your own local services such as local and long distance phone service.)
If your school's name is on the list but you are not the E-rate contact, I strongly urge you to designate or find the E-rate contact for your district so that your forms can get submitted on time. As you know, many formula and competitive grants are requiring E-rate application as a prerequisite.
