The Meaning of "Amend" on Quarterly Reports

Bingo-Raffle licensees that file quarterly reports online also have the capability to amend a prior quarterly report. The "Amend" wording in the quarterly report page shows the licensee what quarterly reports are available for amendment-should it be necessary. PLEASE REMEMBER: this is just an option IF the licensee finds that data in the quarterly is incorrect. This is not a notice from our office that there is anything wrong with the report. Also, amending a prior quarter will lock out the ability to do other functionality, such as filing your next quarter report, filing a change, or being able to renew your license, until the amendment is submitted and approved by our office.

Amending a prior quarter is not the same as filing the next quarter report. Amending a prior report does just that, it changes the filing, much like sending an amendment in paper format. If you incorrectly go in to “amend” a report and do not wish to actually file an amendment, you can go to the summary page for the quarterly reports and click on “reset filing”. This will close the report with the original data and you can proceed with submitting the next quarterly, change or renewal.

Resubmitting a Rejected E-filed Quarterly Report

IMPORTANT: When resubmitting a rejected quarterly report, you must be sure to actually resubmit it to our office by going to the “confirm and file” button on the bottom of the “review” page, after which you will get a confirmation page that the filing was successful. If you do not see the confirmation page, you have not completed your resubmission. If you instead hit the “save” or “save and exit” button, we will not receive the corrected quarterly, as it was never resubmitted to our office. “Save” will save the changes to the filing, but does not send it to our office. “Save and exit” will save the changes, and will leave the quarterly screen, but also does not send it to our office. You must still go the review screen and hit “confirm and file” and receive the confirmation page before it actually is submitted to our office for review. Please contact us with any questions at 303-869-4910.

Investigator Notes: Correct Reporting of Pull Tab Deals

Lately we have witnessed licensees entering event and seal pull tab games as an entire game, rather than reporting on each sub-deal within the game. Each sub-deal within an event and seal pull tab game is considered a pull tab deal in and of itself, and must be reported individually. When reporting these games, you must enter the Form Number and the Serial Number for each deal on the LE 33 and the serial number on the LE 31. The serial numbers are different for each game within the same form number making it a separate game. Please be sure to capture each deal separately when reporting these types of pull tab games.

Remember, your organization must have at least one certified Games Manager in order to run charitable games, and we recommend licensees maintain more than one. We continue to offer in-person and online Games Manager training courses.
