FCC $35 Amateur Application Fee Effective Date Announced.

The new Amateur Radio license application fees will take effect on April
19, 2022. That means that applicants at our next VE session (April 14th)
will NOT have to pay the application fee, but those at subsequent VE
sessions will be subject to the fee..

The Federal Communications Commission's authority to impose and collect
fees is mandated by Congress.

The $35 application fee, when it becomes effective on April 19, will apply
to new, modification (upgrade and sequential call sign change), renewal,
and vanity call sign applications. The fee will be per application.

Administrative updates, such as a change of name, mailing or email address,
will be exempt from fees.

VECs and Volunteer Examiner (VE) teams will not have to collect the $35 fee
at exam sessions. Once the FCC application fee takes effect, new and
upgrade applicants will pay the $35 application fee directly to the FCC by
using the CORES FRN Registration system (CORES - Login).

When the FCC receives the examination information from the VEC, it will
email a link with payment instructions to each successful candidate who
then will have 10 calendar days from the date of the email to pay.

After the fee is paid and the FCC has processed an application, examinees
will receive a second email from the FCC with a link to their official
license. The link will be good for 30 days.
