51.3. Report filing failed due to 'Membership Error'
If your IL report failed to file due to an error that reads "Membership Error: There is no account in the database for user name [enter value here]," it is likely due to an incorrect value being entered. Enter your Filer ID (starts with FID) number into the Registration ID field on your filing committee record:
NOTE: "A Filer Account consists of a user name and password, and can be obtained by an officer or candidate of the committee calling the Campaign Disclosure division of the Board. The user name and password serve as an electronic signature for filing reports. A report may be filed only if the password matches the security information on file with the Board, so it is important to keep the password and user name secure."
