On April 27, 2021, ARRL News reported:
Auto-registration in the FCC Commission Registration System (CORES) amateur radio exam for candidates using a Social Security number will be discontinued on May 20, 2021. Applicants must use an FCC Registration Number (FRN) for all license transactions with the FCC. Examinees must register in CORES and receive an FRN before exam day. Starting on May 20, electronic batch filed applications that do not include a candidate’s FRN will be rejected. The Social Security/Licensee ID Field will be disabled.
“The Federal Communications Commission will be changing the way new amateur radio applicants register for a FCC Registration Number (FRN)”1—the identification number needed by those who are “doing business” with the Commission (e.g. applying for a radio operator license, paying fees).
The FCC have released a short HOWTO video demonstrating the registration procedure. Please note that e-mail address verification is required when creating an FCC User Profile; applicants will need access to their e-mail account during profile creation.
