What is the deadline for filing campaign finance reports?

The deadline for filing campaign finance reports in Florida is determined by the type of campaign involved. For candidates and political committees involved in regularly scheduled elections, the reports must be filed every quarter, with the first quarterly report due by January 10th. For committees involved in special elections and independent expenditure only committees, the reports must be filed within 48 hours of receiving contributions or making expenditures exceeding $1,000. Moreover, committees active in the pre-election period are required to file additional reports leading up to the election. In all cases, it is crucial to comply with the specified reporting deadlines to ensure transparency and accountability in campaign financing.
