The FCC will be implementing a new application fee schedule, effective April 19, 2022. Amateur Radio license applications and renewals will be charged a $35 fee. The FCC Public Notice is linked below.
FCC Not Processing New License Applications
Posted date: in: News
On Wednesday, April 27, in a notice to all VECs, the FCC again asked them to refrain from submitting any amateur radio exam session or license application files while the Commission works to resolve an issue with the Universal Licensing System (ULS) application filing system.
The ULS application filing system was not functioning properly last week and then the FCC indicated the problem was resolved, as previously reportedby ARRL.
However, this was not the case, as no new amateur radio call signs and licenses have been issued since Monday, April 18, 2022.
Tuesday, April 19 is the day the FCC application fees became effective for amateur radio.
ARRL VEC Manager Maria Somma, AB1FM, reports that new call signs are not being assigned by the FCC even if the applicant has paid the FCC application fee.
The FCC was processing upgrade applications through the system without an issue because there are no fees required for those applications.
In addition to new call signs not being issued even if the applicant has paid the FCC fee, some applicants are also having issues paying and logging into the system.
Other types of license application transactions may also be experiencing problems. Applicants should expect delays with license, call sign, and application processing associated with individuals and amateur radio clubs.
Amateur radio license filings are currently on hold until further notice and FCC did not estimate how long the system would be down.
We will update the public as information from the FCC becomes available.
Class is being taught by some of our General Class or Extra Class club members!
One more month and they will be done!!!
Class will be extended a couple of weeks.
