Within15 days of reaching that $5,000 threshold, you must file a Statement of Candidacyauthorizing a principal campaign committee to raise and spend funds onyour behalf. Within 10 days of that filing, your principal campaigncommittee must submit a Statement of Organization. Your campaign will thereafter report its receipts and disbursements on a regular basis."

There are so many great Xero add-ons that it's difficult to answer this question! Here are a handful of the Xero add-ons we use most often for our clients at HPC (http://www.hpccpa.com), a U.S. Xero Platinum Partner.Receipt Bankhttp://www.receipt-bank.com/Receipt Bank is a fantastic way for our clients to submit receipts and invoices to their dedicated HPC accountant.Here's how it works: Our client takes a picture with her mobile phone. Receipt Bank does the data entry. The HPC accountant reviews and clicks once to sync the transaction + receipt/invoice image into Xero. Our client crumples up the receipt and lobs it gracefully into the trash bin.ZenPayrollDelightful, Modern Payroll | ZenPayrollOf all the cloud accounting user interfaces out there, ZenPayroll is my favorite.Setting up new employees with ZenPayroll is a breeze—employers can even ask employees to onboard themselves via an emailed link.

No, there are multiple forms you need to fill out with the FEC, including Statement of Organization, Statement of Candidacy, and Report of Receipts and Disbursements. Those get you recognized as a candidate by the FEC. You then have to fill out more paperwork in each of the 50 states and any territories where you wish to run to get your name on the ballot. State ballot access is usually more than filling out forms. It often requires petitions with thousands of signatures.
