Most de minimis-eligible service providers don’t think they have a compliance problem — which is exactly the problem. They assume their underlying carrier “handles the 499,” they skip the annual 499-A because they don’t owe USF directly, or they’ve never actually run the math on their own revenue threshold. The campaign’s job is to convert that quiet uncertainty into a registration.
De minimis status is a real exemption with real value — but it’s not automatic, it’s not permanent, and it’s not your carrier’s responsibility to maintain on your behalf. The Commpliance Group’s webinar gives service providers a clear, practical walkthrough of how to qualify, how to keep qualifying, and where the FCC and USAC most often catch providers off guard.
- Interconnected VoIP providers, CLECs, resellers, and smaller telecom/IT communications companies
- Compliance, finance, and regulatory affairs leads (Controllers, VP Finance, Compliance Officers, Owners/Principals at smaller carriers)
- Providers currently filing 499-Q who suspect they may now qualify for de minimis status
- Providers who currently rely on an underlying carrier and have never filed a 499-A directly
