>From my understanding you must File a 499a whether or not your de minimis every quarter. And by doing so you do have a Filer ID number which you can give to upstream providers. Most providers check this on the FCC site:<br>

If Tier 2 paying directly to FCC he is not getting charged for USF from Tier 1, he just has to provide Tier 1 with his 499 filer id and fill up some paper works.<br>

The issue here is that because I would contribute less than $10,000 per<br>
year, I don't have to file the worksheet, and thus I do not have a 499<br>
filer id.<br>
<br>
If I submit a 499A to the FCC and qualify under the de minimis section, do<br>
I get a filer id that I can provide to my Tier 2 provider so _I_ do not<br>
get charged USF by my Tier 2 provider?<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br>
