Annual Questionnaire Program for Reporting Revenues for Telecommunications Providers
New Telecommunications Annual Questionnaire System Coming January 2025
PSC is in the process of updating the Annual Questionnaire System (AQS) used for filing annual reports for telecom carriers. Until that time, the system will be unavailable.
Telecommunications Providers must report annual revenues using the Annual Questionnaire System (AQS). The due date for reporting revenues for a given calendar year is April 1st (or the next business day if April 1st falls on a weekend). The questionnaire for reporting revenues for a given calendar year will become available in early January of the following calendar year. (For example, the AQS for reporting CY 2025 revenues will be available in January of 2026.)
The following types of telecommunications provider operating in Wisconsin are required to complete the annual questionnaire:
