Miami-Dade County: no public salary among the income listed

The filer held Miami-Dade County in 2023, a salaried public office, but the primary sources of income listed (Jean Monestime Consulting, LLC) don't include a public payer such as the State of Florida, the county or the school district.

What to check
  • Check the income page of the original: the salary may be listed under another name.
  • Check that they were paid in office all year: the Commission keeps listing a suspended or departed official under the office, and a new term may start partway through the year.
  • Some officials decline or donate their salary; the form still asks for income received.

Context 2

Context Unusual reporting

Net worth $390,000; listed items add up to $748,310

Reported net worth: $390,000. Household goods + listed assets − listed liabilities = $748,310. 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.
