Our integration partners sometimes make updates to their system that we are unaware of. If the steps provided in our help file don’t match what you see on their site, please contact our support team and we will assist you in getting the integration properly set up.

If your committee needs to file via NetFile, and the Efile Report to Local Button is not available, it’s a similar process to filing with EFS:

  1. Download the .cal file from our system
  2. Go to Netfile’s Third Party Upload Page
  3. Fill out the fields – you will need your Filer ID (not committee ID) & Filer Password
  4. Click on Select CAL File to Upload and find your .cal file
  5. Click on Submit File
