FFI Councils

Welcome FFI Councils!  Thank you for being a vital part of FFI and its mission - YOU ARE OUR FEET IN THE STREAMS!  You will find the documents and forms you need to file the Council's annual report.  If you need assistance please contact clubs@flyfishersinternational.org or call 406-222-9369 Ext 2.


Annual Report

Welcome to your guide to completing the annual report. Councils are required to upload all necessary documents to the report. 

DUE DATE: APRIL 1, 2025

IMPORTANT TIPS – READ THROUGH THIS FIRST!

  1. READ THROUGH AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTION/CHEAT SHEET DOCUMENTS to prepare!  ALL DOCUMENTS ARE IN THE LINKS BELOW.  Do not try to rush through the report process and have everything prepared before clicking the Online Report Form link.
  2. Prepare and save the documents to your computer so they will be ready to upload where indicated in the online form.  Some people find it helpful to also print them to follow along. 
    About the documents:
    • Review the Instruction document first
    • Review the applicable cheat sheet(s)
    • Make sure you have a reconciled year-end bank statement.
    • The "BoardMbrList_IRS-Report_UploadDoc".  This is a required document that you will upload where indicated in the online report form (this is NOT the same as updating your FFI profile).  
  3. There is a single link to the ONLINE REPORT FORM that will guide you through the necessary steps to complete the annual report. 
  4. Do not go to the link until you are ready.  There is no time limit to complete the online form, but once you start, you need to complete it through the final "Submit" button. If you exit, you will not be able to go back to it later and you will have to resubmit everything again.  You can use the previous page and next page buttons without losing info.
  5. At the end, you must click the "Submit" button to complete the report, (you will follow the "Report Completion Instructions" provided).  After you click the "Submit" button, if you choose yes to volunteer hours, you will be re-directed to the impact questionaire link.
  6. Update your council profile.  Links to the tutorial, worksheet, and login link below.
