Lightpath E-Rate eligible solutions
Invoicing & Discount Reimbursement
Lightpath supports the two approved reimbursement options under the E-Rate program:
- Billed Entity Applicant Reimbursement (BEAR). Applicants file FCC Form 472, pay Service Provider in full, and invoice USAC for the discount portion of the bill. If approved, applicant is paid directly to their bank account.
- Service Provider Invoicing (SPI). Customer is billed for non-discounted eligible equipment and services. Service provider files Form 474 and is reimbursed by USAC for the discounted amount.
