What’s required to open my committee’s bank account?

Posted in

It is advisable that you call your selected bank prior to opening your committee’s bank account.  Banks will vary on their requirements.  If your bank requires an Organizational Report and you have not yet opened your bank account, you may want to consider inputting the bank’s information and typing “pending” for bank account number.  File this report with the Commission and print a copy to submit to the bank for verification that you are registered with the Commission as a candidate committee.  Once you have obtained your bank account number, you will need to amend your Organizational Report and replace “pending” with the actual bank account number to comply with the law.
