Wyoming Regulations § 21-5 Establishing an Account

Regulation Text

(a) All persons who are required by law to electronically sign and electronically file campaign finance reports using WYCFIS must establish a WYCFIS account.

(b) Persons establishing a WYCFIS account must provide all information requested by WYCFIS.

(d) The Secretary of State's Office shall send all correspondence to a person's or officer's address of record.

(e) If a candidate has not created a WYCFIS account by July 1 of the election year in which they are running, the Secretary of State's Office shall create the candidate's WYCFIS account. The candidate must file campaign finance reports using their WYCFIS account.

(f) The Secretary of State's Office shall review all WYCFIS account applications for compliance with the law and these rules. The Secretary of State's Office shall reject any WYCFIS account application that is incomplete or does not contain all required information. In addition, the Secretary of State's Office may reject any WYCFIS account application for the following reasons:

(i) A person is applying as a candidate for a position for which they are not qualified; or

(ii) A person is using a fictitious or false name.

(g) If the original purpose for a candidate's campaign committee or a political action committee changes after they have created a WYCFIS account, or a candidate decides to seek a new office after their campaign committee has already created a WYCFIS account, the committee must create a new committee account for the new purpose.

(h) The Secretary of State's Office may remove an account from active status if the responsible party fails to file required reports. Removing an account from active status does not absolve the responsible party's statutory obligation to file campaign finance reports. To reactivate the account, the responsible party must notify the Secretary of State's Office in writing of their intent to file a report. Once the Secretary of State's Office reactivates the account, the responsible party shall file their report within ten (10) days after reactivation.
