Updates to Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) Reporting Deadlines

News Family Wealth and Estate Planning Tax

Entities that are considered reporting companies, with some exceptions, are once again required to file beneficial ownership information (BOI) with FinCEN, a federal Court of Appeals ruled on December 23, 2024. Reporting companies have new deadlines to file based on their creation or registration date. Originally, the first wave of reporting companies was expected to file their reports by January 1, 2025, but the Department of the Treasury has granted additional time to comply.

Updated Deadlines for Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) Reports

Consult with the lawyer who helped you set up the entity and your financial advisors for a detailed plan of action. If you are a reporting company, you should take this time to review BOI report requirements with your financial and legal team to ensure your compliance. The plaintiffs in National Small Business United v. Yellen aren’t currently required to submit BOI reports to FinCEN.

The new deadlines for applicable reporting companies are as follows:

Reporting companies created or registered before January 1, 2024:
- January 13, 2025
Reporting companies created or registered in the United States on or afterSeptember 4, 2024, with a filing deadline between December 3, 2024, and December 23, 2024:
- January 13, 2025
Reporting companies created on or afterDecember 3, 2024 and on or beforeDecember 23, 2024:
- Eligible for an additional 21 days from your original filing deadline
Reporting companies eligible for disaster relief may have extended deadlines beyond January 13, 2025.
- Adhere to the later of the two deadlines
Reporting companies created or registered in the United States on or after January 1, 2025 have 30 days to file their initial beneficial ownership information reports with FinCEN once they’ve received actual or public notice that their creation or registration is effective.
