      2023 Semi-annual reports (PACs and parties)

2023 Semi-annual reports (PACs and parties) During a non-election year, committees that file quarterly during election years automatically switch to a semi-annual reporting schedule. Party committees, SSFs and PACs that file semi-annually during a non-election year will submit two reports covering its financial activity on Form 3X. Access the PDF and instructions.
