🚨Red Flag Alert
Upcoming Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) Reporting Requirement
Starting March 21, 2025, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) requires certain businesses to file Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) reports. Entities registered before this date must submit their initial BOI reports by April 20, 2025. New entities registered on or after March 21, 2025, have 30 days from their registration date to comply.
The Fix: Determine if your business falls under the BOI reporting requirements. If so, prepare to file the necessary information by the applicable deadline to avoid potential penalties. Consult FinCEN's official guidelines or seek legal counsel to ensure compliance.
