New Federal Reporting Requirement for Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI)

As of January 1, 2024, many companies in the United States now have to report information about their beneficial owners, i.e., the individuals who ultimately own or control the company. They will have to report the information to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). FinCEN is a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. 

Who Has to Report?

Companies required to report are called reporting companies. Reporting companies may have to obtain information from their beneficial owners and report that

information to FinCEN. 

When Do I Report?

Reports are being accepted as of January 1, 2024.

• If your company was created or registered prior to January 1, 2024, you have until January 1, 2025, to report BOI.
• If your company was created or registered on or after January 1, 2024, and before January 1, 2025, you must report BOI within 90 calendar days after receiving actual or public notice that your company’s creation or registration is effective, whichever is earlier.
• If your company was created or registered on or after January 1, 2025, you must file BOI within 30 calendar days after receiving actual or public notice that its creation or registration is effective.
• Any updates or corrections to beneficial ownership information that you previously filed with FinCEN must be submitted within 30 days.

U.S. Small Business Administration

Notice to PPP and COVID EIDL Borrowers in Default 

The U.S. Small Business Administration will begin referring defaulted PPP and COVID EIDL borrowers with loans under $100,000 to the U.S. Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service for collection beginning March 4, 2024.

What does this mean? 

Small business borrowers who are referred to Treasury and IRS for collection may face significant consequences, including: 

• Negative impact on credit scores; 
• Withholding of future state and federal tax refunds and any potential federal government funding (such as social security); and,
• Referral of your loan to private debt collectors to pursue repayment, who may use tactics like wage garnishment.   

What can borrowers do? 

If you have a PPP loan under $100,000, follow the instructions at www.sba.gov/PPPForgiveness to complete your PPP forgiveness application by March 3, 2024. If your lender is not participating in the SBA direct forgiveness portal, you will need to contact them directly. You can find a list of participating in the SBA direct forgiveness portal here.

If you have a COVID EIDL loan under $100,000, visit Manage your EIDL at SBA.gov.
