WTA Reports 'Significant Difficulties' Enrolling in EBB

WTA members are experiencing “significant difficulties and delays” in enrolling households in the National Lifeline Accountability Database for the FCC emergency broadband benefit program, the group said in a letter posted Friday in docket 20-445. It's affecting smaller providers enrolling households that aren't Lifeline subscribers and are claiming eligibility through the program's other categories, WTA said. The group wants a one-month delay for all affected providers to submit initial snapshot data of new subscribers.
