Overview

Please join USAC for a webinar overview of Form 481, including changes to the form for the current filing window.

All eligible telecommunications carriers (ETCs) participating in the High Cost and/or Lifeline programs must file and certify Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Form 481 on an annual basis. This form, which is due by July 1, collects financial and operations information used to validate carrier support. Among other data, Form 481 gathers information about a carrier’s holding company, operating companies, affiliates and branding designations (doing-business-as or DBA); ability to function in emergency situations; terrestrial backhaul; Tribal lands engagement; and comparability of voice and broadband service rates in rural and urban areas.
