Worth a lookIncome & business ties
No major clients listed for Peoples Funeral Home, which paid them $25,000
Owners of more than 5% of a business who received more than $1,000 from it must list the business's customers or clients that provided more than 10% of its gross income. The secondary income section is empty or N/A. That's correct only if no single customer exceeded 10% — the form doesn't say.
What to check
For a small or one-person business, it is unusual for no client to exceed 10% of revenue.
Check the business's public contracts or listings for major clients.
Rule: Business owner with no major clients listed
“If your ownership and gross income exceeded the two thresholds listed above, then for that business entity you must list every source of income to the business entity which exceeded 10% of the business entity's gross income”2025 Form 6 instructions, Income — Secondary Sources ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works
Context 5
ContextUnusual reporting
Lists 1 investment account ($36,000) instead of what's in them
The instructions say the investments held in a brokerage account or IRA are the assets to report — not the account itself. As listed, the public can't see what the filer is invested in.
What to check
Which companies or funds are in these accounts? Holdings matter for conflicts of interest.
Rule: Accounts listed instead of investments
“Note that the product contained in a brokerage account, IRA, or the Florida College Investment Plan, is your asset”2025 Form 6 instructions, Assets ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works
ContextUnusual reporting
Net worth $35,000; listed items add up to $304,000
Reported net worth: $35,000. Household goods + listed assets − listed liabilities = $304,000. A difference is normal: net worth also counts assets and debts that aren't listed individually (items under $1,000, credit cards, taxes), and the instructions say subtracting listed liabilities from listed assets won't give an accurate figure in most cases.
What to check
No action needed unless other items look off.
Rule: Net worth vs. listed items
