Mike: You will be responsible for collecting and remitting USF charges to USAC. Your VoIP service provider may do it for you, but you will still have to register, obtain an ID number, and submit the differential of retail versus wholesale USF fees owed on voice services.
FET tax does not apply because the FCC continues to define VoIP services as a data, not telephony, service. State taxes vary by state and still represent a grey area in our opinion. If you ask any state PUC they will of course tell you that you must pay them for any and all services, including VoIP. But as someone else pointed out, check with legal counsel on this one in the state(s) in which you intend to provide service.
