Year 8 (FY 2005-2006), Wave 28 E-rate Funding Committed
Message Posted January 2, 2006
Congratulations to the following 13 Pennsylvania schools and libraries that will be receiving Year 8, Wave 28 E-rate Funding Commitment Letters, totaling $407,751.22.
IF YOU WERE FUNDED IN WAVE 28, THE NEXT STEP IS TO FILE THE 486 -- NOW! FRNs FUNDED IN WAVE 28 WILL BE DATED 1/6/2006 AND THEREFORE MUST HAVE 486s SUBMITTED BY APRIL 5, 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 http://www.universalservice.org/sl/ (on the left 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.
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 jtschell@comcast.net.
