Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. That § 24.2-927 of the Code of Virginia is amended and reenacted as follows:

§ 24.2-927. Failure to report or filing of late report a violation; certain extensions.

Either the failure to file any report or the late filing of any report required by this article shall constitute a violation of this chapter subject to the penalties provided in §§ 24.2-929 and 24.2-930. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any candidate or treasurer required to file a report pursuant to this article shall be entitled to a seventy-two-hour extension of the filing deadline if his spouse, parent, grandparent, child, grandchild or sibling died within the seventy-two hours before the deadline. The State Board or the local electoral board shall be authorized to grant an extension of the filing deadline for a period not to exceed five days in the case of an emergency found by the Board or board sufficient to justify the granting of the extension.
