Attorney provides step-by-step walkthrough on how to file your company's Beneficial Ownership Information Report (BOI or BOIR) online in just a few minutes as required by the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) and the Department of Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).
Here is the link to get started at FinCEN's website: https://boiefiling.fincen.gov/fileboir.
Note that my prior video covered in detail information about whether to file, when to file, what information to provide and how to otherwise comply with the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA). If you have any questions about that, please go here: https://youtu.be/obs7Eb4AyPA
**Regarding the issue as to whether the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) is unconstitutional.** Please note the following (updated as of February 20, 2025):
1. On February 18, 2025, a decision by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas held that the beneficial ownership information (BOI) reporting requirements under the Corporate
Transparency Act (CTA) are once again back in effect.
2. FinCEN then provided an extension to the reporting deadline to March 21, 2025 (for the vast majority of required reporting companies).
3. FinCEN will provide an update before then of any further modification of this deadline.
