Emergency Connectivity Fund Service Delivery Deadline

The Wireline Competition Bureau established June 30, 2022 as the service delivery date for equipment and other non-recurring services funding requests filed during the initial application filing window of the Emergency Connectivity Fund Program, if the equipment or services have not been received at the time the funding request is made. The Bureau also modified the certification language for section 54.1710(a)(1)(x) of the Federal Communications Commission's rules to clarify that applicants may request funding for eligible equipment and services that have not yet been ordered for the upcoming school year (July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022). The 45-day Emergency Connectivity Fund application filing window opened on June 29, 2021 and will close on August 13, 2021. During this initial filing window, applicants may request funding for eligible equipment and services that will be received or delivered between July 1, 2021 and June 30, 2022.
