Federal and New York State Corporate Transparency Act; Act Now!
The Corporate Transparency Act (“CTA”) is effective January 1, 2024. FinCEN now requires that all LLCs, corporations, limited partnerships, or other similar businesses file information about the company’s beneficial owners. Unless an exception applies (such as for non-profits or large organizations as defined in the Act), existing companies must file no later than December 31, 2024.
In addition, New York State has also passed a similar corporate transparency act, which takes effect on December 21, 2024.
Registration
The portal to register your company’s beneficial ownership information is currently live and may be accessed using this link ➡️ https://boiefiling.fincen.gov/
At this time, we are directly reaching out to companies whom we have personally represented at initial creation.
If you require assistance with filing your FinCEN report, please contact us by February 15, 2024. If we do not hear from you by this date, we will assume that you do not require our assistance to comply with the requirements.
The penalties for failure to timely file a complete report are steep, starting at $500 per day that the filing is late, plus criminal penalties.
