The number of call paths available across SBC territories varies widely.  In
SBC Midwest Region 5-State (IL, IN, MI, OH, WI), the tariffs each provide
for a five call path limitation on Call Forwarding Variable.  So you will be
able to forward at least five calls from a residential or business line.
Remote Call Forwarding (RCF) provides for only ONE path.  Additional paths
for RCF cost $13.95 per month per path.  

Also, while your region's tariff provides for a certain limit, some switches
may be set to allow a higher number of paths (e.g. A 1AESS cannot limit
paths, so you get unlimited).
