FEC updates electronic format and FECFile filing software

July 1, 2008

The Commission has updated its electronic filing format to Version 6.2. New versions of FECFile are always available on the FEC website at https://www.fec.gov/help-candidates-and-committees/filing-reports/fecfile-software/. The new format reflects the recent updates to the paper versions of FEC Form 1 (Statement of Organization) and Form 9 (24 Hour Notice of Disbursements for Electioneering Communications) and improves functionality. A list of the changes to the software format is available at that link as well. Committees using commercial software should contact their vendors for more information about the latest software release.

Please note that, for electronic filers, any report filed after June 9, 2008, must be filed in Format Version 6.2 (the new version). Reports filed in previous formats will not be accepted. Thus, for example, all electronic filers must file their 2008 July Quarterly reports in Format Version 6.2.
