There is no change to the reporting and or third party disclosure requirements.

For the FCC Form 473, the Commission reduced the number of respondents to 5,000 based on the actual number of service providers filing FCC Form 473 in funding year 2008. There was no change in burden for FCC Form 474. The FCC Form 472 is used to establish a process and procedure for an eligible entity to seek reimbursement from the service provider for the discounts on services paid in full. After receiving an invoice from the service provider, together with a FCC Form 472, the administrator (USAC – Universal Service Administrative Company) is able to verify the eligible service and approved amounts that should be reimbursed and can make the appropriate payment to the service provider. The FCC Form 472 is also used to ensure that each service provider that provided discounted services within the current funding year for which it submits an invoice to USAC and that invoices submitted from service providers for the cost of discounted eligible services do not exceed the amount that has been approved. FCC Form 473 is used to establish that the participating service provider is eligible to participate in the E–rate program and to confirm that the invoice forms submitted by the service provider are in compliance with the E–rate rules. The FCC Form 473 is also used by USAC to assure that the dollars paid out by the universal service fund go to eligible providers. FCC Form 474 is to establish the process and procedure for a service provider to seek payment for the discounted costs of services it provided to billed entities for eligible services.
