So I'm reading that there was a law passed in the US (JOBS Act) which had sections regulating crowdfunding, but I'm also reading that it's not in effect yet, so we're in a sort of limbo.

Is everyone actually required to make disclosures to the SEC for Kickstarter campaigns prior to launching?

Do we need to make reports to the SEC after?

Do I need to hire a securities lawyer to handle this sort of stuff?

I thought Kickstarter would be simple but now all this stuff seems complicated and the status of the rules seem to be in the air?

Thanks guys! I used some keywords from your responses and found a couple articles dispelling that myth as well. Thanks again!
