We had a customer open an account "John Doe for Congress" with John and his wife Betty listed as signers. He has an EIN number. What ownership type should we select for this account? Our customer service rep selected joint account, but since he is using an EIN number I disagree. However, no other ownership type seems to fit either.

Typically, campaign accounts have very specific rules. First you would have to determine if this a Federal or State campaign and refer to the correct rules.
