This is a matter where you really need a telecom lawyer with knowledge of your state.
What we found is you really need to avoid hitting that interconnected VoIP requirement. As for how you do that, check with your lawyers. Once we crossed that it's been a chain of paperwork that seems to never end. Going beyond "just" paying USF (and it sucks when your bookkeeper forgets to account for interest and your licensed backhaul applications are held up for pennies) you have recordkeeping requirements, compliance requirements for customer information, and now some kind procedure for accessibility by persons with disabilities. That's just the federal level. Once your state public service people see your FCC 499 (from USF) you might be hearing from them about more paperwork.
