Posts from February 2025.
On February 27, 2025, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”) announced that it will not issue any fines or penalties or initiate any other enforcement action against companies that do not file or update beneficial ownership information (“BOI”) reports under the Corporate Transparency Act (“CTA”) by the newly-instated March 21, 2025 deadline.
On February 17, a federal judge in Texas lifted a preliminary injunction issued in Smith v. United States Department of the Treasury, removing the last legal hurdle to the enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act (“CTA”). As a result, the CTA’s reporting obligations are back in effect—at least temporarily.
