    • 2nd Window 
    • Don’t start 471 process early, all Form 471’s will be deleted on September….
    • Even if you applied in the 1st Window, you can file in the 2nd window for additional equipment, but do not duplicate funding
    • Possibly we will know Windows 1 filing status in the next week or so,
    • Good possibility that all requests will be funded for window 1 filing
    • Same documentation needed for window 2
    • Window 2 demand could exceed the remaining budget, so there is a possibility that not everyone will get funding for funding 2 filings.
    • If Window 2 does not have enough funds, they will be filed in order of the highest free/reduced or E-Rate discount rate.
    • Equipment must be on the school site, and invoiced before filing for reimbursement
