Update:<\/p>\n
Apparently USAC is erroneously denying Invoice Deadline Extension Requests (IDERs) submitted today (their system\u2019s deadline date is still set to 1\/28\/2017 which was the original deadline).\u00a0 I just spoke with USAC and they will be issuing retroactive IDER approvals in the next few days for all IDERs that are submitted by midnight tonight. \u00a0So please don\u2019t panic if you submit your extension request today and it is immediately rejected by the system for being submitted late.<\/p>\n
Ugh.\u00a0 I feel like there should be a Dilbert cartoon. : )<\/p>\n

From:<\/strong> Julie Tritt Schell [mailto:jtschell@comcast.net<\/a>]<\/p>\n Sent:<\/strong> Monday, January 30, 2017 1:55 PM Today is the deadline to invoice USAC for FY 2015 for Internal Connections FRNs.\u00a0 Technically the last date to invoice was January 28, 2017 (which is 120 days from the last date to receive service \u2013 September 30, 2016) but because the 28th<\/sup> fell on a Saturday, the deadline is now January 30, 2017.\u00a0 \u00a0Attached is a list of entities that were funded for Internal Connections in FY 2015 but who have not received any disbursements from USAC as of today.<\/p>\n If your name is on this list, and you purchased the equipment\/services, you should file the BEAR Invoice Deadline Extension Request (IDER) by midnight tonight \u2013 no exceptions.\u00a0\u00a0 USAC will then grant a single 120-day extension to submit the BEAR (they are not permitted to grant a second extension).<\/p>\n HOW TO REQUEST AN EXTENSION: <\/strong>\u00a0If you need to request an extension, there are two ways to do so \u2013 one if you have a PIN and one if you do not.\u00a0 The attached document explains both methods. \u00a0The quickest and easiest way is if you have a PIN because the system grants immediate approvals.<\/p>\n If your name is on the list and you did not purchase the equipment\/services in the FRN, it is very important that you submit a Form 500 to return the \u201ccommitment\u201d to USAC so you can use it in future years.\u00a0 The Form 500 must be submitted in EPC and there are very unique and specific instructions on how to do this for FY 2015 FRNs.\u00a0 Those instructions are available at:\u00a0 http:\/\/usac.org\/sl\/tools\/news-briefs\/preview.aspx?id=744<\/a>.<\/p>\n If you have any questions or need my help in submitting the IDER today, please don\u2019t hesitate to contact me at jtschell@comcast.net<\/a>!<\/p>\n — Julie<\/p>\n Affected Entities (open attached file if your name is on the list below):<\/strong><\/p>\n Julie Tritt Schell<\/p>\n PA E-rate Coordinator Penn*link<\/p>\n\n
