Do I need to be registered in NAS to submit an NRUF FCC Form 502?
To submit an NRUF FCC Form 502, you must be a registered user of NAS and the account must be in an active status.
Why were only some rows provided in my FCC Form 502 included in the NRUF Utilization and/or the NRUF Forecast Reports?
If there is a blank row in between rows with data, NAS will not read any information entered below a blank row.
NRUF errors must be resolved and resubmitted for the data to appear in the NRUF Utilization and/or Forecast Reports.
I submitted my FCC Form 502 and didn’t receive any errors in my email response. What are my next steps?
NANPA recommends service providers and consultants to pull the NRUF Utilization Missing Report the next business day, after receiving a confirmation that the NRUF report has been accepted. The NRUF Utilization Missing Report can be found in NAS by going to the NRUF toolbar and selecting Reports. If there are any Central Office codes (NPA-NXXs) and/or Thousands-Blocks (NPA-NXX-Xs) appearing on the NRUF Utilization Missing Report, action is required.
Why is the CO code and/or thousands-block not appearing in the NRUF Utilization Report, but it was reported in my FCC Form 502?
If your NRUF response/reply includes errors, the row(s) containing errors are not considered on file and must be corrected. When completing the forms, you must enter your data starting on the header rows. This is required for NAS to read/process the data. The header row on the utilization forms is row 21, and on the forecast forms it is row 22.
The FCC Form 502 is stating I need a password and/or the field is protected. How do I proceed?
The FCC Form 502 has enabled macros. You must not try to populate any cell that is protected. Company information can only be populated on the “Company Info” tab. For the geographic FCC Form 502, Forms U1, U2, U3 and U4, you must start at row 21 and can only populate columns A through J. For Forms F1A/B, F2A/B, you must start populating at row 22 columns A through H. For Forms F3A/B you must start populating on row 22 columns B through H.
