Statement Summaries

Note: As of October 2024, USAC no longer sends monthly paper invoices. The billing activity previously shown in your invoices is now available in statement summaries in E-File.

In E-File’s Payments tab, the “Billing Statements” view shows a list of all statements in the last 24 months. While the table includes high-level details for each statement, more details are available in individual statement summaries.

Access a Statement Summary

Click on any statement’s blue “statement ID” number to open its statement summary. The summary window includes statement details as well as a statement activity table.

Statement Activity

The Statement Activity section shows the previous balance due and summarizes all transactions related to this statement. The transaction table begins with initial charge or credit (e.g., support mechanism charges, FCC Forms 499 A/Q annual true up adjustments, late filing fees, etc.). Following the initial charge or credit, the table lists any connected transactions (e.g., payments made, interest and penalties, and other miscellaneous charges).

Please note that recent transactions may take some time to appear in the statement activity.

Below the list of recorded transactions, the summary shows the company’s outstanding balance on this statement. This amount (the sum of all statement transactions) is as of the date indicated and may not reflect all changes since the previous business day.

    • Note: Each payment’s Pay ID number is included in the Description column
  • Outstanding Balance – Indicates the balance owed after calculating the transactions in the statement activity, and includes the date this balance was calculated.
