Small Business Owners Beware, The Corporate Transparency Act is Here! Small business owners, other than sole proprietors, may have new requirements to report their Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) under the federal Corporate Transparency Act (CTA). The CTA was enacted as part of the 2021 National Defense Authorization Act, and reporting under the act became effective January 1, 2024 for new businesses and for businesses created prior to January 1, 2024 there is a December 31, 2024 deadline to file. The CTA was designed to give law enforcement information on the actual ownership of small businesses to stop or prevent money laundering and terrorist activities. A Reporting Company is required to report BOI for a Beneficial Owner (BO) or Company Applicant (CA) to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), a part of the U.S. Treasury Department. The RC is required to report the BOs or CAs personally identifiable information (PII) including the individual’s name, date of birth, residential address, and a copy of the individual’s driver’s license or passport. The PII held by FinCEN is designed to remain confidential from the public! Most small businesses are Reporting Companies unless the business is a sole proprietorship. However, there are 23 exemptions to the reporting requirements for Reporting Companies. Failing to comply with the CTA filing requirements are severe ($500 per day for each day that the violation continues up to a maximum of $10,000.00 ($591.00 per day beginning January 25, 2024)). Similarly, penalties exist for law enforcement if it violates FinCEN disclosure protocols. After the initial reporting under the CTA, any changes to the required information must be made within 30 days following the change. Failure to make changes timely will also result in penalties as described above. For more information about filing requirements under the CTA, you should speak with an attorney who handles CTA matters. Also, FinCEN has a Small Entity Compliance Guide that may be found at https://lnkd.in/gjxW-zRz. My thanks go out to attorney Lisa C. Thompson or Arizona for sharing her expertise regarding the CTA with me and many other consumer bankruptcy attorneys across the nation. #bankruptcyattorney #bankruptcylawyer #lernerandrowelawgroup
