  • A Jan. 13 deadline for businesses to report "beneficial ownership information" was delayed again following a court order.

Originally set for January 1, 2024, the deadline has been extended to January 1, 2025, providing small businesses with an additional year to report beneficial ownership information to FinCEN. This delay aims to give businesses more time to understand and comply with the new regulations, which are designed to combat financial crimes like money laundering by increasing transparency about who ultimately owns or controls companies. The extension reflects the complexity of the new rules and the need for businesses to adequately prepare, especially given the potential penalties for non-compliance.
