OAR 199-020-0013: Filing an Annual Verified Statement of Economic Interest

(1) The purpose of this rule is to clarify the procedures for filing an Annual Verified Statement of Economic Interest (SEI) and explain some reporting requirements. All public officials required by ORS 244.050 to file an SEI must do so through the Commission’s Electronic Filing System (EFS). Information for filers and links to the EFS are on the Commission’s website at https://www.oregon.gov/ogec/Pages/index.aspx . Individuals may also contact the Commission for assistance by phone at 503-378-5105 or by email at OGEC.mail@ogec.oregon.gov . (2) Each required SEI filer must establish an account in the EFS system in order to file an SEI. The annual SEI filing is due each April 15. All required filers as identified by the filer’s jurisdiction will receive an invitation via email to create an account in the EFS system. The invitation expires in 90 days if not acted upon. (3) Once a filer’s individual account is established, automated notices from the EFS system will be sent via email to each filer alerting them of upcoming filing deadlines, their filing status, and any late filing penalties they may have accrued. (4) It is the filer’s responsibility to update their EFS account when their contact information changes.
