Attention businesses: The U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas has issued a preliminary injunction suspending the enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act's (CTA) Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) reporting requirements, effectively delaying the January 1, 2025 compliance deadline.
Here's what this means and some immediate implications:
Nationwide Suspension
The injunction halts enforcement of the CTA and its BOI reporting requirements nationwide. For now, businesses are no longer required to meet the January 1, 2025 filing deadline.
Ongoing Uncertainty
While this preliminary injunction is a significant development, it is not final. Future court decisions or legislative changes could overturn, modify, or impact the ruling.
What This Means for You
Given the uncertainty surrounding the injunction, we strongly recommend you consult with your attorney before the end of 2024 to determine whether a BOI filing is best for your business.
Although we do not facilitate BOI filings, our team is here to provide guidance and ensure you can access the necessary resources. We're closely monitoring this situation and will share updates as they become available.
