I filed mine today.  The penalties seem to be pretty steep if you don't. The FinCEN website was running really slow. Reporting: https://fincen.gov/boiFAQ: https://fincen.gov/boi-faqs#B_2Companies required to report are called reporting companies. There are two types of reporting companies: Domestic reporting companies are corporations, limited liability companies, and any other entities created by the filing of a document with a secretary of state or any similar office in the United States. Foreign reporting companies are entities (including corporations and limited liability companies) formed under the law of a foreign country that have registered to do business in the United States by the filing of a document with a secretary of state or any similar office.

Our CPA had us file ours months ago to avoid any undo scrutiny.
A Democracy is when two wolves and a lamb vote on the dinner menu. That is why this country was specifically not designed as a Democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic.

MO If you have all your data, it's easy. I waited for the website to load. It's not hard. This is to reduce fraud and have a person linked to all the shell companies filed.

Stupid. Big brother putting their fingers into more stuff. I’m trying to decide whether to give up a couple LLC’s or just file for them. They aren’t currently being used, but may at some point

What Chad said is accurate. Chinese and other foreigners are using the law as it is for major fraud and money laundering activities in the country. While it is a pain in the @&$ for legit business owners it is an effort to link real people to all of the bs LLCs and she’ll companies being used for large scale illegal activities.

I always find it interesting...folks so willing to give up rights and privacy in the name of "well, it will help the government fix illegal stuff going on"  It was never more evident when masks and clot shots were being shoved down our throats. Not crazy about this but I guess it's something I need to look into...I'm probably already in a penalty phase...thanks for the head's up Chad. You open a business and the FLOOD of junk mail comes in, it's dumb how much you get and I got to the point where I was throwing everything away and not even looking at it. I'm sure this is something I got notified of and never did. The sad thing in all of this...these junk mailers have no issues tracking down who owns my LLC but the government can't 
Don't let your ears hear what your eyes didn't see, and don't let your mouth say what your heart doesn't feel As much as I hate to admit it, I do like my truck

Thanks for the heads up Chad, just did mine took about 5 minutes. Just needed EIN number and a picture of mine and wife's DL.

If you have 20 full time employees and $5 million sales or gross receipts and are based in USA then you don't have to file

My accountant keeps telling me this is a 2025 file requirement B. 2. When do I need to report my company’s beneficial ownership information to FinCEN?
A reporting company created or registered to do business before January 1, 2024, will have until January 1, 2025 to file its initial beneficial ownership information report.
A reporting company created or registered on or after January 1, 2024, and before January 1, 2025, will have 90 calendar days after receiving notice of the company’s creation or registration to file its initial BOI report. This 90-calendar day deadline runs from the time the company receives actual notice that its creation or registration is effective, or after a secretary of state or similar office first provides public notice of its creation or registration, whichever is earlier.
Reporting companies created or registered on or after January 1, 2025, will have 30 calendar days from actual or public notice that the company’s creation or registration is effective to file their initial BOI reports with FinCEN.

My CPA wants to charge me $150. to file this , I think I can do it , basic information, My CPA tried charging me $650 for this! It took about 3 minutes to do it on my own. The only thing I needed was a scanned copy of my DL. Stupid regulation BS, but it was easy enough to do.
