Wash. Admin. Code § 390-24-025 - Time for filing statement of financial affairs

(1) Any person holding elected public office, except as exempted by the terms of RCW 42.17A.700, and any appointed official and professional staff member listed or referenced in RCW 42.17A.700, and any appointed official required to comply with the reporting requirements of RCW 42.17A.700 by any other statute are required to file the F-1 for each partial or full calendar year that such person has served.

(a) For any elected official or officer continuing service from the prior year, the reporting period covers the entire preceding calendar year.

(b) For any officer or official who leaves public office prior to January 1st, the reporting period covers only the portion of the previous year that such person was in office.

(c) For any officer or official appointed to office between January through November, or any person who becomes a candidate within the same time period, the reporting period covers the immediately preceding twelve-month period from the time of appointment or candidacy (or "from the time the F-1 was filed"). However, if the appointee or candidate files between January 1st and April 15th and also has a prior obligation to file as an officer or official under (a) of this subsection, then the reporting period covers the period from January 1st of the preceding year through the time of appointment or candidacy in the current year. For any officer or official appointed to office in December, the reporting period covers the preceding twelve-month period ending December 31st of the same year.

(a) For any officer or official continuing service from the prior year, between January 1st and April 15th of each year immediately following the year, or portion of the year served;

(b) For any officer or official who leaves office before January 1st of the following year, either:

(i) Within sixty days of leaving public office; or

(ii) Between January 1st and April 15th of the year immediately following the portion of the year served; or

(c) For any person appointed to a vacancy in office, or becoming a candidate, as follows:
