Do you have another report due before the election? If you are an authorized candidate committee in the 2018 election OR file monthly, the answer is YES. If you are a quarterly filer, you may need some assistance with answering that question.
Pre-General Reports are due this Thursday, on October 25 and cover the period between October 1-17.
If you still have questions about the need to file, please review the flowchart below, read the FEC’s guide on Pre-General Reports or contact your FEC assigned RAD Analyst.
