This form should take less than 10 minutes to complete since this form is used to collect the beneficial owner information for new (who became beneficial owners after your initial Beneficial Owner Information Report was submitted) or additional beneficial owners (if you had more than 4 beneficial owners and need to utilize our extended form). 

Please have a copy of either a passport or driver's license for anyone you believe is a beneficial owner of this entity handy to upload (as required by the FinCEN.)

The Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) went into effect on January 1, 2024. Our service fee for filing the Beneficial Owner Information Report (BOIR) will be $165 per entity and $95 for updates to your BOIR. 

The resulting reporting requirement impacts both new and existing entities. Reports of beneficial ownership information (BOIR) to FinCEN are due by the end of the year for entities in existence before January 1, 2024, or within 90 days of filing for entities filed after January 1, 2024, unless they qualify one of 23 exceptions to the CTA. After your initial BOIR is submitted you have 30 days to update your BOIR to report any changes.

To learn more about the Corporate Transparency Act, please read our blog.
