If you need to file an amended report for NYBOE, you must first generate the amended report in ISP. This is done in the same way you generated and the original report, but the Amended box will need to be checked.
- Navigate to Reports, then to Compliance
- Enter the parameters as if you were filing the report for the first time – these parameters should exactly match the report being amended
- Click the Amended box
- In the dropdown menu that appears for Amended Compliance Report, select the report you are amending or select the ‘Filed Outside of ISP’ option if it was not filed through ISP
- Click Generate
Once the report generates, make sure to review for any potential errors. You can choose the PDF option in the Download menu at the bottom of the screen to review the report. If you are satisfied after the review, click Download again and this time choose E-filing. Once you’ve downloaded the e-file, log into to the NY elections system and follow the process there for uploading the amendment to their system. See Common Validation Errors for additional information related to issues that are known to arise when uploading to the NY site.
Note: If you want to see the efile(.csv) before you upload, it is imperative that after downloading, you only open the file in Notepad or Notepad++, NOT Excel, Numbers, or a similar program (right click and select open with Notepad or Notepad++).
