Result: Likely required to file*

On December 23, 2024, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit lifted a nationwide preliminary injunction halting enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) and the requirement for beneficial ownership information reporting. As a result, the CTA BOI reporting requirements and deadlines are once again in effect, though FinCEN has extended the deadline for all existing entities to file their initial reports to January 13th 2025.
