ERRATUM
Released:  September 19, 2008
By the Managing Director: 
On January 25, 2008, the Managing Director released an Order, DA 08-122, in the above-captioned 
proceeding.  This Erratum corrects an inadvertent error by reinserting two rules that were eliminated and 
correcting typographical errors in the Appendix.  Accordingly, this Erratum corrects the Appendix of the 
Order as indicated below:
Re-insert the former § 1.1108 and § 1.1109 of the Commission’s rules, and renumber them as the new § 
1.1110 and § 1.1111.  The new § 1.1111 has been restructured for reasons of clarity.  The new § 1.1110 
and § 1.1111 should read as follows:
§ 1.1110  Attachment of charges.
The charges required to accompany a request for the Commission regulatory services listed in §§ 
1.1102 through 1.1109 of this subpart will not be refundable to the applicant irrespective of the 
Commission’s disposition of that request.  Return or refund of charges will be made only in 
certain limited instances as set out at § 1.1115 of this subpart.
§ 1.1111  Payment of charges.
(a) The schedule of fees for applications and other filings (Bureau/Office Fee Filing Guides) 
lists those applications and other filings that must be accompanied by a FCC Form 159, 
Remittance Advice or the electronic version of the form, FCC Form 159-E, one of the forms that 
is automatically generated when an applicant accesses the Commission’s on-line filing and 
payment process.
(b) Applicants may access the Commission’s on-line filing (http://www.fcc.gov/e-file.html) 
and fee payment program by accessing (http://www.fcc.gov/feefiler.html).  Applicants who use 
Federal Communications Commission DA 08-2125

the on-line process will be directed to the appropriate electronic application and payment forms 
for completion and submission of the required application(s) and payment information.
(c) Applications and other filings that are not submitted in accordance with these instructions 
will be returned as unprocessable.
NOTE: This requirement for the simultaneous submission of fee forms with applications or other 
filings does not apply to the payment of fees for which the Commission has established a billing 
process.  See §1.1121 of this subpart.
(d) Applications returned to applicants for additional information or corrections will not 
require an additional fee when resubmitted, unless the additional information results in an 
increase of the original fee amount.  Those applications not requiring an additional fee should be 
resubmitted directly to the Bureau/Office requesting the additional information.  The original fee 
will be forfeited if the additional information or corrections are not resubmitted to the appropriate 
Bureau/Office by the prescribed deadline.  A forfeited application fee will not be refunded.  If an 
additional fee is required, the original fee will be returned and the application must be 
resubmitted with a new remittance in the amount of the required fee to the Commission’s 
lockbox bank.  Applicants should attach a copy of the Commission’s request for additional or 
corrected information to their resubmission.
(1) If the Bureau/Office staff discovers within 30 days after the resubmission that the 
required fee was not submitted, the application will be dismissed.
(2) If after 30 days the Bureau/Office staff discovers the required fee has not been paid, the 
application will be retained and a 25 percent late fee will be assessed on the deficient amount 
even if the Commission has completed its action on the application.  Any Commission actions 
taken prior to timely payment of these charges are contingent and subject to recession.
(e) Should the staff change the status of an application, resulting in an increase in the fee 
due, the applicant will be billed for the remainder under the conditions established by § 
1.1118(b) of the rules.
NOTE:  Due to the statutory requirements applicable to tariff filings, the procedures for handling 
tariff filings may vary from the procedures set out in the rules.
The current §§ 1.1110 through 1.1119 is being renumbered as §§ 1.1112 through 1.1121 and should read 
as follows:
§ 1.1112  Form of payment.
(a) Fee payments should be in the form of a check, bank draft, on money order denominated 
in U.S. dollars and drawn on a United States financial institution and made payable to the 
Federal Communications Commission or by a Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or Discover 
credit card.  No other credit card is acceptable.  Fees for applications and other filings paid by 
credit card will not be accepted unless the credit card section of FCC Form 159 is completed in 
full.  The Commission discourages applicants from submitting cash and will not be responsible 
for cash sent through the mail. Personal or corporate checks dated more than six months prior to 
their submission to the Commission’s lockbox bank and postdated checks will not be accepted 
and will be returned as deficient.  Third party checks (i.e., checks with a third party as maker or 
endorser) will not be accepted.
Federal Communications Commission DA 08-2125

(1) Specific procedures for electronic payments are announced in Bureau/Office fee filing 
guides.
(2) It is the responsibility of the payer to insure that any electronic payment is made in the 
manner required by the Commission.  Failure to comply with the Commission’s procedures will 
result in the return of the application or other filing.
(3) Payments by wire transfer will be accepted; however, to insure proper credit, applicants 
must follow the instructions set out in the appropriate Bureau/Office fee filing guide.
(b) Applicants are required to submit one payment instrument (check, bank draft or money 
order) and FCC Form 159 with each application or filing.  Multiple payment instruments for a 
single application or filing are not permitted.  Except that a separate Fee Form (FCC Form 159) 
will not be required once the information requirements of that form (the Fee Code, fee amount, 
and total fee remitted) are incorporated into the underlying application form.
(c) The Commission may accept multiple money orders in payment of a fee for a single 
application where the fee exceeds the maximum amount for a money order established by the 
issuing agency and the use of multiple money orders is the only practical method available for 
fee payment.
(d) The Commission may require payment of fees with a cashier’s check upon notification to 
an applicant or filer or prospective group of applicants under the conditions set forth below in 
paragraphs (d) (1) and (2) of this section.
(1) Payment by cashier’s check may be required when a person or organization has made 
payment, on one or more occasions with a payment instrument on which the Commission does 
not receive final payment and such failure is not excused by bank error.
(2) The Commission will notify the party in writing that future payments must be made by 
cashier’s check until further notice.  If, subsequent to such notice, payment is not made by 
cashier’s check, the Party’s payment will not be accepted and its application or other filing will 
be returned.
(e) All fees collected will be paid into the general fund of the United States Treasury in 
accordance with Pub. L. 99-272.
(f) The Commission will furnish a stamped receipt of an application only upon request that 
complies with the following instructions.  In order to obtain a stamped receipt for an application 
(or other filing), the application package must include a copy of the first page of the application, 
clearly marked “copy”, submitted expressly for the purpose of serving as a receipt of the filing.  
The copy should be the top document in the package.  The copy will be date-stamped 
immediately and provided to the bearer of the submission, if hand delivered.  For submissions by 
mail, the receipt copy will be provided through return mail if the filer has attached to the receipt 
copy a stamped self-addressed envelope of sufficient size to contain the date stamped copy of the 
application.  No remittance receipt copies will be furnished.
§ 1.1113  Filing locations.
Federal Communications Commission DA 08-2125

filing under 47 U.S.C. 158(d)(1) or § 1.1116 of this subpart shall file their applications in the 
appropriate location as set forth in the rules for the service for which they are applying, except

Commission’s lockbox bank at the address for the appropriate service set forth in §§ 1.1102 
through 1.1109.
(b) Except as provided for in paragraph (c) of this section, all materials must be submitted as

the applicant or filer.
(c) Fees for applications and other filings pertaining to the Wireless Radio Services that are 
submitted electronically via ULS may be paid electronically or sent to the Commission’s lock box 
bank manually.  When paying manually, applicants must include the application file number

the payment in order for the Commission to verify that the payment was made.  Manual payments 
must be received no later than ten (10) days after receipt of the application on ULS or the 
application will be dismissed.  Payment received more than ten (10) days after electronic filing of 
an application on a Bureau/Office electronic filing system (e.g., ULS) will be forfeited (see §§ 
1.934 and 1.1111.)
(d) Fees for applications and other filings pertaining to the Multichannel Video and Cable 
Television Service (MVCTS) and the Cable Television Relay Service (CARS) that are submitted 
electronically via the Cable Operations and Licensing System (COALS) may be paid

applicants must include the FCC Form 159 generated by COALS (pre-filled with the transaction 
confirmation number) and completed with the necessary additional payment information to allow 
the Commission to verify that payment was made. Manual payments must be received no later 
than ten (10) days after receipt of the application or filing in COALS or the application or filing 
will be dismissed.

(a) Any instrument of authorization granted by the Commission, or by its staff under 
delegated authority, will be conditioned upon final payment of the applicable fee or delinquent 
fees and timely payment of bills issued by the Commission.  As applied to checks, bank drafts 
and money orders, final payment shall mean receipt by the Treasury of funds cleared by the 
financial institution on which the check, bank draft or money order is drawn.

payments for late payments, by the date prescribed by the deferral decision or bill.  Failure to 
comply with the terms of the deferral decision or bill shall result in the automatic dismissal of the 
submission or rescision of the Commission authorization for failure to meet the condition 
imposed by this subpart.  The Commission reserves the right to return payments received after the 
date established on the bill and exercise the conditions attached to the application.  The 
Commission shall:

(c)(1) Where an applicant is found to be delinquent in the payment of application fees, the 
Commission will make a written request for the delinquent fee, together with any penalties that 
may be due under this subpart.  Such request shall inform the applicant/filer that failure to pay or 
make satisfactory payment arrangements will result in the Commission’s withholding action on, 
and/or as appropriate, dismissal of, any applications or requests filed by the applicant.  The staff 
shall also inform the applicant of the procedures for seeking Commission review of the staff’s fee 
determination.
(2) If, after final determination that the fee is due or that the applicant is delinquent in the 
payment of fees, and payment is not made in a timely manner, the staff will withhold action on 
the application or filing until payment or other satisfactory arrangement is made.  If payment or 
satisfactory arrangement is not made within 30 days of the date of the original notification, the 
application will be dismissed.

(2) When the fee processing staff or bureau/office determines that an insufficient fee has 
been submitted within 30 calendar days of receipt of the application or filing and the application 
or filing is dismissed.
(3) When the application is filed by an applicant who cannot fulfill a prescribed age 
requirement.
(4) When the Commission adopts new rules that nullify applications already accepted for 
filing, or new law or treaty would render useless a grant or other positive disposition of the 
application.

applicant notifies the Commission that they no longer wish their application to remain on file 
behind the first applicant and any other applicants filed before his or her application, and the 
applicant specifically requests a refund of the fee paid and dismissal of his or her application.

(3) An applicant that has qualified for a fee refund under paragraph (e)(2) of this section and 
continues to operate as an NCE station is exempt from fees for broadcast auxiliary stations

exemption under paragraphs (c), (d), or (e) of this section.
NOTE:  Applicants claiming exemptions under the terms of this subpart must certify as to their 
eligibility for the exemption through a cover letter accompanying the application or filing.  This 
certification is not required if the applicable FCC Form requests the information justifying the 
exemption.
§ 1.1117  Adjustments to charges.
(a) The Schedule of Charges established by §§ 1.1102 through 1.1109 of this subpart shall be 
reviewed by the Commission on October 1, 1999 and every two years thereafter, and adjustments 
made, if any, will be reflected in the next publication of Schedule of Charges.
(1) The fees will be adjusted by the Commission to reflect the percentage change in the 
Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U) from the date of enactment of the 
authorizing legislation (December 19, 1989) to the date of adjustment, and every two years 
thereafter, to reflect the percentage change in the CPI-U in the period between the enactment date 
and the adjustment date.
(2) Adjustments based upon the percentage change in the CPI-U will be applied against the 
base fees as enacted or amended by Congress in the year the fee was enacted or amended.
(b) Increases or decreases in charges will apply to all categories of fees covered by this 
subpart. Individual fees will not be adjusted until the increase or decrease, as determined by the 
net change in the CPI-U since the date of enactment of the authorizing legislation, amounts to at 
least $5 in the case of fees under $100, or 5% or more in the case of fees of $100 or greater.  All 
fees will be adjusted upward to the next $5 increment.
(c) Adjustments to fees made pursuant to these procedures will not be subject to notice and 
comment rulemakings, nor will these decisions be subject to petitions for reconsideration under § 
1.429 of the rules.  Requests for modifications will be limited to correction of arithmetical errors 
made during an adjustment cycle.

§ 1.1118  Penalty for late or insufficient payments.
(a) Filings subject to fees and accompanied by defective fee submissions will be dismissed 
under § 1.1111 (d) of this subpart where the defect is discovered by the Commission’s staff 
within 30 calendar days from the receipt of the application or filing by the Commission.
(1) A defective fee may be corrected by resubmitting the application or other filing, together 
with the entire correct fee.
(2) For purposes of determining whether the filing is timely, the date of resubmission with 
the correct fee will be considered the date of filing.  However, in cases where the fee payment 
fails due to error of the applicant’s bank, as evidenced by an affidavit of an officer of the bank, 
the date of the original submission will be considered the date of filing.
(b) Applications or filings accompanied by insufficient fees or no fees, or where such 
applications or filings are made by persons or organizations that are delinquent in fees owed to 
the Commission, that are inadvertently forwarded to Commission staff for substantive review will 
be billed for the amount due if the discrepancy is not discovered until after 30 calendar days from 
the receipt of the application or filing by the Commission.  Applications or filings that are 
accompanied by insufficient fees or no fees will have a penalty charge equaling 25 percent of the 
amount due added to each bill.  Any Commission action taken prior to timely payment of these 
charges is contingent and subject to rescission.
(c) Applicants to whom a deferral of payment is granted under the terms of this subsection 
will be billed for the amount due plus a charge equaling 25 percent of the amount due.  Any 
Commission actions taken prior to timely payment of these charges are contingent and subject to 
rescission.
(d) Failure to submit fees, following notice to the applicant of failure to submit the required 
fee, is subject to collection of the fee, including interest thereon, any associated penalties, and the 
full cost of collection to the Federal government pursuant to the provisions of the Debt Collection 
Improvement Act of 1996 (DCIA), Public Law 104-134, 110 Stat. 1321, 1358 (Apr. 26, 1996), 
codified at 31 U.S.C. §§ 3711 et seq.  See 47 C.F.R. 1.1901 through 1.1952.  The debt collection 
processes described above may proceed concurrently with any other sanction in this paragraph.
§ 1.1119  Petitions and applications for review.
(a) The fees established by this subpart may be waived or deferred in specific instances 
where good cause is shown and where waiver or deferral of the fee would promote the public 
interest.
(b) Requests for waivers or deferrals will only be considered when received from applicants 
acting in respect to their own applications.  Requests for waivers or deferrals of entire classes of 
services will not be considered.
(c) Petitions for waivers, deferrals, fee determinations, reconsiderations and applications for 
review will be acted upon by the Managing Director with the concurrence of the General 
Counsel.  All such filings within the scope of the fee rules shall be filed as a separate pleading 
and clearly marked to the attention of the Managing Director.  Any such request that is not filed 
as a separate pleading will not be considered by the Commission.  Requests for deferral of a fee 
payment for financial hardship must be accompanied by supporting documentation.

deferral of payment must be submitted to the Office of the Managing Director as specified in 
paragraph (c) of this section.  Waiver requests that do not include these materials will be 
dismissed in accordance with § 1.1111 of this subpart. Submitted fees will be returned if a waiver 
is granted.  The Commission will not be responsible for delays in acting upon these requests.
(f) Petitions for waiver of a fee based on financial hardship will be subject to the provisions 
of paragraph 1.1166(e).
§ 1.1120  Error claims.
(a) Applicants who wish to challenge a staff determination of an insufficient fee or 
delinquent debt may do so in writing.  A challenge to a determination that a party is delinquent in 
paying the full application fee must be accompanied by suitable proof that the fee had been paid 
or waived (or deferred from payment during the period in question), or by the required 
application payment and any assessment penalty payment (see § 1.1118) of this subpart).  Failure 
to comply with these procedures will result in dismissal of the challenge.  These claims should be 
addressed to the Federal Communications Commission, Attention: Financial Operations, 445 12th 
St. SW., Washington, DC 20554 or emailed to ARINQUIRIES@fcc.gov.
(b) Actions taken by Financial Operations staff are subject to the reconsideration and review 
provisions of §§ 1.106 and 1.115 of this part, EXCEPT THAT reconsideration and/or review will 
only be available where the applicant has made the full and proper payment of the underlying fee 
as required by this subpart.
(1) Petitions for reconsideration and/or applications for review submitted by applicants that 
have not made the full and proper fee payment will be dismissed; and
(2) If the fee payment should fail while the Commission is considering the matter, the 
petition for reconsideration or application for review will be dismissed.
§ 1.1121  Billing procedures.
(a) The fees required for the International Telecommunications Settlements (§ 1.1103 of this 
subpart), Accounting and Audits Field Audits and Review of Attest Audits (§ 1.1106 of this 
subpart) should not be paid with the filing or submission of the request.  The fees required for 
requests for Special Temporary Authority (see generally §§ 1.1102, 1.1104, 1.1106 & 1.1107 of 
this subpart) that the applicant believes is of an urgent or emergency nature and are filed directly 
Federal Communications Commission DA 08-2125 
11
with the appropriate Bureau or Office should not be paid with the filing of the request with that 
Bureau or Office.
(b) In these cases, the appropriate fee will be determined by the Commission and the filer 
will be billed for that fee.  The bill will set forth the amount to be paid, the date on which 
payment is due, and the address to which the payment should be submitted.  See also § 1.1113 of 
this subpart.
All references to the renumbered provisions that appear elsewhere in the Commission’s rules are amended 
to reflect these changes.
