Only 90 Days Left To File BOI Report

Only 90 days remain to ensure your business complies with the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA). 

As we stated in our post Prepare Now For New Beneficial Ownership Reporting Requirements, where we discussed Starting January 1, 2024, many business entities will be required to report information to the U.S. government about who ultimately owns or controls them, including the business’ owners and officers. This new beneficial ownership information (BOI) reporting requirement is part of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), which aims to help law enforcement combat financial crime and protect the U.S. financial system from bad actors.

When is the deadline to comply?

A reporting company created or registered to do business before January 1, 2024, will have until January 1, 2025, to file its initial beneficial ownership information report. A reporting company created or registered on or after January 1, 2024 and before January 1, 2025 will have 90 days to file.

What are the penalties for non-compliance?

Penalties for non-compliance can be significant, resulting in criminal or civil fines and/or imprisonment. Not filing reports timely can result in a $500 per day penalty, up to $10,000, and imprisonment of up to two years.

Where can I learn more?
