TLDR: Guess what? There's a new ruling on the BOI Reporting case. Most businesses are now (once again) 'REQUIRED' to file a BOI Report!!!
DUE DATE: MARCH 21, 2025
Here's what the FinCen website has to say , and I quote:
"ALERT [updated Feb. 19, 2025]: Beneficial ownership reporting requirements are back in effect, with a new deadline of March 21, 2025 for most companies. FinCEN will assess its options for further modifying deadlines. "
Here is the Official Notice from FINCEN.
Sooooo...
- If you've already filed....You're good to go.
- If you haven't filed yet... You should probably get right on that!!
Now, here's some good news ---> The US Treasury has also stated "it will ... not enforce any penalties or fines against U.S. citizens or domestic reporting companies or their beneficial owners after the forthcoming rule changes take effect."
Again, these 'rulings' and 'statements' seem to be as fluid as the ocean! So, if I were you, I wouldn't chance it. Just get the dang thing filed!
For all the latest details, always check the FinCen website. Also, take a peak at the Journal Of Accountancy, (search for BOI) to see what they are reporting also, as they are usually pretty up to date on all things accounting related.
