Are your lobbying compliance filings raising red flags?

Filing errors are one of the primary reasons organizations get audited. By Jan. 1, 2012, organizations must elect to file lobbying reports using either the LDA or the IRS method, and they must use that method for the entire calendar year. There are major differences between the two, affecting what must be tracked and reported, but understanding these differences can help you easily prevent costly mistakes. This webinar, featuring top political involvement attorney Ken Gross, will teach you how to differentiate between these filing methods, covering topics such as:

How the definition of lobbying varies between the LDA and the IRS
Why an organization would choose one method over the other
Who is considered a lobbying contact under each method
What must be disclosed - including federal, state and grassroots lobbying
Instructions on the differences in filing each report
What types of red flags are frequently found on reports
