Gift to Agency Reports – Form 801

Gifts to an agency are reported via FPPC Form 801 which is used to disclose payments made to the District when the payments provide a personal benefit to an official of the District. Examples may include travel, meals, and other benefits. Under certain circumstances, these payments will not result in a gift to the official, but will be considered a gift to the District provided that the payments are used for official District business and meet the requirements set forth in FPPC Regulation 18944.2, which is available on the FPPC website at www.fppc.ca.gov.
