# FCC Releases 2012 Universal Service Revenue Reporting Worksheet

 March 6, 2012

 

 

 

 

 

 

As it does every year, the FCC released its update to the annual Form 499-A. The Form 499-A is used to report revenues for purposes of the federal Universal Service Fund and also for calculating associated revenue-based contribution obligations such as TRS, NANP, LNP and FCC Regulatory Fees. The [Public Notice](http://transition.fcc.gov/Daily_Releases/Daily_Business/2012/db0305/DA-12-337A1.pdf) describes changes to the form, primarily to implement the new requirement that non-interconnected VoIP providers contribute to the TRS fund. (Non-interconnected VoIP providers were [required to register with USAC](http://telecomlawmonitor.lexblogplatformthree.com/2011/12/reminder-non-interconnected-voip-providers-must-register-by-december-31/) for this purpose by December 31, 2011.)

The 2012 Form 499-A has been posted on USAC’s website. Go to ​“universal service links” in our Resource Center on the right-hand side of this page for the USAC Forms page.

**REMINDER:** Kelley Drye will discuss these changes, important developments in USF audits and other topics at our [3rd Annual USF Update Webinar](http://www.telecomlawmonitor.com/2012/02/articles/kelley-drye/please-join-us-for-kelley-dryes-3rd-annual-usf-update-webinar/) next week.
