COMMITTEES How to e-File Outline.pdf
Log In
- To log in any time, go to https://nadc-e.nebraska.gov. Click on the Filer Login tab and then enter your credentials. You will then land on your Entity Overview Page.
Enter Transactions (contributions, expenditures, pledges, and loans)
- All activity must be entered as a transaction or it will not appear on the statement or report.
- To enter transactions Hover over the Financial tab towards the top of the page and then click on the type of transaction you want to enter.
- For entering contributions, only businesses which are populated or committees which are registered in the system will be available for you to choose. If a committee is not found, you may search the public database for all committees, click on Committee Search. Also you may contact our office to have an entity added into the system, please email a list to nadc@nebraska.gov or ask to speak with David Hunter or Serena Dunn for help with the FirstTuesday filing system.
- Special Note: the FirstTuesday Campaign Finance System is transaction-based. Only the exact transactions entered will appear on the required statement or report in the form of a financial amount. Ideally, it works best if you enter all contributors and payees, regardless of amount. The PDF statements and reports will only display amounts that are required (e.g., Form B-1 Schedules A and B will only display contributors who have given more than $250 within a calendar year, even if those giving less have been entered).
- Further note: for Candidate, Ballot Question, and Political Action Committees who must disclose all amounts on the Financial Summary- If you wish to keep the “$250 or less” contributors and payees entirely out of the system, you can instead use the already existing names “..250 or less..” to plug in lump sum amounts at the end of each reporting period (type 250 into the Name box and click Find). If using this method, keep in mind those lump sum transaction amounts may later need to be reduced and the filing amended if you have a contributor go over the 250 threshold later during the calendar year.
File Statements or Reports
- To file a statement or report Click on the Filings tab towards the top of the page and you will land on the Filing Administration page.
