Question of the week:

Does the Oklahoma Ethics Commission require candidate committees to have an Employer Identification Number (EIN)? 

No. The IRS issues EINs to identify an organization for tax purposes. Some banks require an EIN number to open a depository, but this is not a requirement of the Oklahoma Ethics Commission.

For more regarding EIN numbers and taxation of political organizations, including candidate committees, see the links below. The staff of the Ethics Commission are not tax professionals and are unable to answer tax related questions, so the information provided is purely for informational purposes. If you have specific questions or concerns regarding political organizations and taxes you should seek the advice of a tax professional—and yes, the expense involved in tax advice for a political committee may be paid using that committee’s campaign funds.
