Year 8 (FY 2005-2006), Wave 19 E-rate Funding Committed
Message posted October 30, 2005

Congratulations to the following 51 Pennsylvania schools and libraries that will be receiving Year 8, Wave 19 E-rate Funding Commitment Letters, totaling
$1,589,125.72.

With this wave, 73% of PA's schools and libraries have received funding commitments for Year 8, but unfortunately 27% of our 1130 entities still have not been funded. If you are in the 27% category, please know that we plead with the SLD on a weekly basis to devote more resources to reviewing applications. If your 471 application status states "Certified - In Window" or "In Review" it means that your application is in the queue to be reviewed, but that they just haven't gotten to it yet (to check, go to: "471 Application Status on the SLD website: http://www.sl.universalservice.org/FY3_form471/471StatusCheck.asp). THERE WILL BE MANY, MANY MORE WAVES, SO IF YOU HAVEN'T BEEN FUNDED YET FOR YEAR 8, DON'T PANIC.

IF YOU WERE FUNDED IN WAVE 19, THE NEXT STEP IS TO FILE THE 486 -- NOW!  FRNs FUNDED IN WAVE 19 MUST HAVE 486s SUBMITTED BY MARCH 1, 2006.

This form tells the SLD 3 things:
1) that they are authorized to pay invoices (either BEAR or SPIFs)
2) that your technology plan has been approved (and by which SLD-certified approver)
3) that you were CIPA compliant by July 1, 2005.

For applicants requesting discounted bills this year, the service provider must receive a copy of the 486 approval letter before they can begin discounting your bills. So the sooner you file this form, the better.

The 486 can be filed electronically under the "apply online" section of the SLD's website at
www.sl.universalservice.org (on the right side toolbar). You can submit this form electronically even if you don't have a PIN number. If that's the case, simply hit submit, then print out the signature page and mail that to the SLD. If you would prefer to file the paper form, it's located on the SLD's website under the "SLD Forms" section (on the left side toolbar).

Because the start of the funding year has begun (July 1), you should skip item 6A on the Form 486 (for early filing). Also, if you're CIPA compliant, you can also skip boxes 6B and 6C.

If you have any questions, please contact me at
