July 22 (UPI) — Jared Kushner revealed nearly 80 previously undisclosed assets in a revised version of his personal financial disclosure released on Friday.

The revised disclosure showed that Kushner, President Donald Trump‘s son-in-law and a senior White House adviser, omitted 77 assets from his initial form that were later added during “ordinary review” by the government ethics office. His attorneys said it was an inadvertent mistake.

Kushner’s financial disclosure has been updated 39 times since the first filing in March and the attorney to Kushner and his wife Ivanka Trump, who is also a senior White House aide, said the couple “followed each of the required steps in their transition from private citizens to federal officials.”

Of the 77 assets that were disclosed in the new filing 60 were related to a collection of bonds. The new disclosure also included a stake in Cadre, an online real estate investment platform, worth between $5 million and $25 million.

Kushner also previously omitted an art collection worth between $5 million and $25 million, which his attorney said wasn’t included because it was for “personal enjoyment” and not investment purposes.

The new disclosure shows that Kushner and Ivanka Trump hold assets valued between $206 million and $760 million, after the previous filing placed the value between $240 million and $740 million.

Upon accepting positions in the White House, Kushner resigned from 266 outside positions and Ivanka Trump resigned from 292.

Both Kushner and Ivanka Trump remain passive investors in their individual family’s real-estate business and receive income from the holdings without taking part in decision-making.

In addition to the financial filings, Kushner recently updated a national security questionnaire in which he previously failed to disclose information about “over 100 calls or meetings with representatives of more than 20 countries,” his attorney said.
