Who determines whether I am required to file a Financial Disclosure Statement?
By statute, you are required to file a Financial Disclosure Statement (FDS) if you are in the Excepted, Legal Services and Management Supervisory Services and are paid at the rate of DS-13 and above. Your agency head must notify the Office of Campaign Finance if you are in either service. Others required to file the FDS are candidates for political office, except Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC) candidates; the Mayor; the Chairman and members of the District of Columbia Council; District Senators/Representative to the US Congress; President and members of the District of Columbia Board of Education; and members of certain Boards and Commissions.
