Attached:\u00a0Form 486 Due List as of Nov 14<\/a><\/p>\n

~ 21 Affected Entities, Listed Below and Attached ~<\/p>\n

~ Be Careful to Check Correct Certifications ~<\/p>\n

This is a friendly reminder for schools and libraries that have not yet filed their Form 486 for FY 2023.\u00a0 The 486 certifies receipt of services\/CIPA compliance and is due within 120 days of the funding commitment letter date or the start of services (whichever is later).<\/p>\n

Attached is a list of the entities that have been funded for FY 2023 but who haven’t yet filed their Form 486, along with the Form 486 due date.\u00a0\u00a0For each 30 days that the 486 is overdue, USAC deducts 1 months\u2019 worth of E-rate funding.\u00a0 In addition, no BEARs or vendor SPIs can be submitted until the Form 486 has been certified\/approved.\u00a0So don\u2019t delay \u2013 file the 486 now.\u00a0\u00a0 Notes:<\/p>\n

— I included internal connections FRNs where no 486 has been filed, but some applicants choose to wait and file these after the PO has been issued or any equipment received.<\/p>\n

— Also included are FRNs whose 486 are due in the upcoming months. \u00a0There is still plenty of time to file these 486s, but I wanted to include them just as an early reminder.<\/p>\n

Attached is a Form 486 Filing Guide that I encourage you to keep handy as you’re completing the 486.\u00a0 It explains what to click and not click to make the form even easier to navigate.\u00a0\u00a0Caution<\/strong>:\u00a0 When checking the certification boxes, don\u2019t get click happy!\u00a0 For all applicants except consortia, only check the 1st CIPA certification, and not the last two.\u00a0 If you check one of the last two, it unchecks the first certification and your application will be held for months until USAC reaches out to you to determine if you meant to report you weren\u2019t CIPA compliant.\u00a0 Here\u2019s what you SHOULD check.<\/p>\n

\"CIPA-CERT1\"<\/p>\n

CIPA Certifications for Consortia<\/strong>: \u00a0Before Consortia can file their 486, they must first collect a signed Form 479 (each year) from each consortia member.\u00a0 After all 479s have been collected, the consortia lead may file the Form 479 and check the following CIPA certifications.<\/p>\n

\"CIPA-CERT2\"<\/p>\n
