There is just one week left to file a Form 470 for FY2017. Your Form 470 must be submitted by April 13 in order to allow enough time to wait 28 days to conduct competitive bidding and still be able to file a Form 471 within the filing window.

Most E-Rate applicants need to file a Form 470 for desired products and services every year. The only time this is not the case is when a Form 470 from an earlier year resulted in a signed multi-year contract that includes the upcoming funding year.
