In today’s fast-paced businesses, especially LLCs registered before this date, must prioritize their compliance requirements. One of the most critical deadlines looming is the Beneficial Ownership Information Report (BOIR) filing, which is vital to avoid potential fines and penalties. Here’s what you need to know to stay compliant and how Pumpkin Tax Co. We’re here to guide you through this crucial process with ease.
Is Your LLC Registered Before 2024?
If your LLC was registered before 2024, it’s crucial to file your BOIR to remain in good standing. Missing this deadline can result in:
- Hefty fines and financial penalties
- Loss of good standing, which could affect business operations
- Unnecessary legal complications, potentially leading to audits or business suspension
Pumpkin Tax Co. specializes in helping businesses like yours file BOIR efficiently and accurately. Whether you’re a new or existing LLC, our team is here to ensure you meet the upcoming deadlines and protect your business from costly penalties.
Why Is BOIR Filing Important?
The Beneficial Ownership Information Report (BOIR) is a mandatory regulatory requirement aimed at promoting transparency about individuals who control or have significant ownership of your company. This typically applies to individuals with at least 25% ownership or control over the business.
Filing your BOIR serves two key purposes:
- Regulatory Compliance: Non-compliance can lead to fines ranging from $500 to $10,000 depending on the severity and delay in filing.
- Business Integrity: By filing, you demonstrate transparency and trustworthiness, which is crucial for maintaining partnerships, contracts, and investor confidence.
Consequences of Missing the BOIR Deadline
For LLCs registered before 2024, the BOIR filing deadline is fast approaching. Missing the filing deadline may lead to the following consequences:
- Immediate Fines: Penalties can escalate quickly, starting from $500 per day after the missed deadline.
- Loss of Good Standing: Non-compliance can lead to your business losing its good standing, affecting contracts, funding, and even day-to-day operations.
