D.C. Mun. Regs. tit. 3, r. 3-3004
A candidate who has designated a principal campaign committee may apply, on a Request for Candidate Waiver form, for a waiver from filing reports separate from the candidate's committee.
The Director may grant a waiver of the filing and reporting requirements upon certification by a candidate that, within five (5) days after personally receiving any contribution, the candidate shall surrender possession of the contribution to the principal campaign committee without expending any of the proceeds from the contribution.
A candidate who is granted a waiver shall not make any non-reimbursed expenditures for the campaign except in accordance with § 3004.4.
A candidate may use personal funds to make an expenditure to the candidate's designated principal campaign committee. The principal campaign committee shall report the expenditure as a contribution received from the candidate and, if accompanied by a written instrument attesting thereto, as a loan pursuant to § 3011.7.
The waiver from filing and reporting shall continue in effect as long as the candidate complies with the conditions under which it was granted.
