The “Yes-No” Statements


Do I have to answer the Yes/No questions on the signature page?

Yes. Annual filers must answer all five questions. New entrants and SGEs must answer the first four questions but are not required to answer the fifth question. If you do not answer these questions, your form is incomplete and your ethics counselor will return the form to you to complete. When you answer these questions, you are certifying that you either have or do not have something to report in that part. Checking no to a statement when you actually have something to report could subject you to disciplinary action or prosecution.
