FORM CF-18 INSTRUCTIONS
This form must contain original signature(s) in ink .
Copies of signatures, including those on faxes, PDFs, or other electronic files, are not acceptable.
A candidate or committee treasurer must file this form at each board of elections where the candidate or committee is
required to file campaign financial disclosure reports. Please provide name(s) and Filer ID# and check the applicable box
(es) in Sections A, B and C
.
To request termination of the committee or candidate’s filing obligation:
Electronic filers with NYSBOE must submit this fully completed paper request form (CF-18) when submitting a final
campaign financial disclosure termination report.
A final itemized campaign financial disclosure report must be filed using the Electronic Filing System (EFS) Soft-
ware, whether filed as an attachment to an email, filed by mail on diskette, CD or DVD, or a non-itemized campaign
financial disclosure report (i.e., No-Activity Report) must be filed online at www.elections.ny.gov or by paper using
this CF-18 form, if applicable.
All previously required campaign financial disclosure reports must have been filed to date.
The committee bank account must have an ending cash balance of $0, which also must be reflected in the filer’s
final financial disclosure report.
All outstanding loans or liabilities must have been repaid or forgiven, and required letters of forgiveness/
indebtedness must have been submitted to the appropriate board(s).
Notes about termination: Termination can be requested with Periodic, Post-Primary, Post-General and Post -Special
Election report filings. Termination can also be requested with an Off-Cycle report, which is defined as a report which
does not correspond to any specific filing period. All applicable reports must continue to be filed until termination is ap-
proved by NYSBOE. Termination with a local board of elections does not constitute termination with NYSBOE.
To request resignation as treasurer of the committee:
Electronic filers with NYSBOE must submit this fully completed paper request form (CF-18) when submitting a final
campaign financial disclosure treasurer resignation report.
A treasurer’s final itemized campaign financial disclosure report created using the Electronic Filing System (EFS)
Software, whether filed as an attachment to an email, or filed by mail on diskette, CD or DVD, or a non-itemized
campaign financial disclosure report (i.e., No-Activity Report) must be filed online at www.elections.ny.gov or by
paper using this CF-18 form, if applicable.
A campaign financial disclosure report submitted electronically that is intended to be a resignation report cannot be
processed as a resignation report unless a completed CF-18 form is submitted as well.
Attach the treasurer’s letter of resignation to the CF-18 form. Treasurers should also submit their letter to any board
where they are required to file, and to the candidate of an authorized committee.
All previously required campaign financial disclosure reports must have been filed to date.
Notes about resignation: A treasurer can request resignation with Periodic, Primary, General or Special Election report
filings. A treasurer can also request resignation with an Off-Cycle report, which is defined as a report which does not cor-
respond to any specific filing period. The new treasurer must submit amended CF-02, CF-03 and CF-16 forms, as appli-
cable.
To file a No-Activity Report (non-itemized campaign financial disclosure report):
The Electronic Filing System (EFS) Software does not accommodate the filing of No-Activity Reports. Therefore, elec-
tronic filers with NYSBOE can either submit this fully completed paper request form (CF-18) to file a No-Activity Report
orsubmit a No-Activity Report online at www.elections.ny.gov.
