351—4.18(68A,68B) Schedule F - Loans Received and Repaid.

1. 4.18(1)  Reporting of monetary loans (not debts and obligations for goods and services). The committee shall report all loan activity made to or repaid by the committee during the reporting period. This applies to any loan of money that is deposited into the committee’s accounts. However, other debts and obligations owed for the provision of goods or services to the committee (that are not monetary advances) shall be reported on Schedule D.
2. 4.18(2)  Report of lump sum of unpaid loans carried over from last report. The schedule shall contain a beginning entry of the total unpaid loans as of the last report. Loans received and itemized on prior reports should not be re-itemized on the current report, except as necessary to indicate repayment activity.
3. 4.18(3)  Date received. The schedule shall include the month, day, and year the loan was physically received by a person on behalf of the committee. If the loan was by check, the date of the loan to be reported is the date the check is physically received by a person on behalf of the committee, even if this date is different from the date shown on the check.
4. 4.18(4)  Date paid. Full or partial loan repayments made by the committee shall be reported using the month, day, and year. The date of the repayment is the date the check is issued. Full or partial loan repayments shall be shown on this schedule and should not be reported on Schedule B. However, loan interest payments shall be reported on Schedule B (more information can be found in rule 351—4.15(68A,68B)) and not on Schedule F. Loans that are forgiven in full or in part are considered in-kind contributions and shall be itemized on Schedule E, with a cross-reference entry in the space provided on Schedule F.
5. 4.18(5)  Name and address of lender. The schedule shall include the name and address of each person who has made one or more loans of money to the committee during the reporting period, or to whom the committee makes a loan repayment during the reporting period. When the original source of the money is a third party (such as a bank that loans money to an individual who loans it to the committee) or if a third party has personally paid and assumed a loan from the original lender (such as an individual who pays off the loan to the bank with the expectation of receiving the loan repayment from the committee), the report shall also identify the name and address of the third party.
6. 4.18(6)  Relationship to candidate. In the case of monetary loans to candidates’ committees, the schedule shall include information indicating whether the lender is related to the candidate within the third degree of consanguinity or affinity, as defined in subrule 4.14(5).

This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code section 68A.402.
