The Corporate Transparency Act: Compliance Seminar

The Corporate Transparency Act has important implications for both small and large businesses. Although there are numerous exemptions from the reporting requirements, many small businesses will not qualify for an exemption and will need to report information on their beneficial owners. Is your business prepared to take on Corporate Transparency Act compliance? We strongly encourage all small business owners to learn more about the Corporate Transparency Act and understand how it can affect your business. Please join us for this free seminar with BrownWinick Law Firm and protect yourself from potential liability. +++ Who needs to know about the Corporate Transparency Act? The CTA requires “reporting companies” to file a report with FinCEN. The CTA defines “reporting company” as a corporation, limited liability company (LLC), or other similar entity that is created by the filing of a document with a secretary of state or any similar office under the law of a State or Indian tribe. Why do you need to know about the Corporate Transparency Act? Most businesses will be required under law to file a beneficial ownership information (BOI) report. It is the obligation of each reporting company to file reports with FinCEN. Individual beneficial owners, senior officers, and company applicants may face civil and/or criminal liability for willful failure to provide required information or for providing false information. Penalties can be up to $10,000 in fines, and up to two years incarceration for willful negligence in complying.
