It’s official!! The FCC has announced that the deadline for filing 2008 regulatory fees is 11:59 p.m. on September 25, 2008. The announcement was made in the context of a notice issued by the Commission providing information about the available mechanisms for paying the fee. Whatever payment approach you use, you would be well-advised to use it before the deadline – the Commission charges a 25% late-payment fee to those who miss the deadline.
