Important Update: FinCEN Pauses BOI Reporting Enforcement and Extends Deadlines
Cassidy Roell
Feb 28, 2025
On February 27, 2025, FinCEN announced important changes to Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) reporting enforcement and deadlines, which may impact your compliance requirements under the Corporate Transparency Act.
Key Highlights of the Announcement
- No Immediate Fines or Penalties: FinCEN will not issue fines, penalties, or take enforcement actions against companies failing to file or update BOI reports by the current deadlines.
- New Deadlines to Be Issued: FinCEN plans to release an interim final rule by March 21, 2025. This rule will include updated due dates for BOI reporting, effectively extending current deadlines.
- Focus on High-Risk Entities: Treasury emphasized prioritizing BOI reporting for entities posing significant law enforcement and national security risks while minimizing regulatory burden on businesses.
- Opportunity for Public Input: FinCEN will seek public comments on potential revisions to BOI reporting requirements. These comments will help shape further rulemaking and any future deadline adjustments.
What This Means for You
If your business is required to report BOI under the Corporate Transparency Act, this announcement provides temporary relief from compliance deadlines. However, it’s critical to stay informed about the forthcoming interim final rule and any revised due dates or requirements. Our team is closely monitoring updates from FinCEN and will provide guidance as soon as additional details are released.
Next Steps
- Watch for the Interim Final Rule: The new rule, expected by March 21, 2025, will clarify updated compliance timelines.
- Reach Out for Help: If you have questions about BOI reporting or how this impacts your business, our team is here to assist.
