This webinar will review the Corporate Transparency Act and its beneficial ownership reporting requirements. Our panel of astute tax professionals will walk you through the key definitions and the new reporting requirements and offer suggestions on complying with the Act for companies, trusts, and individuals.

Description

Effective Jan. 1, 2024, the beneficial ownership disclosures include the legal name, date of birth, current address, and identifying numbers of these owners. There are also requirements to immediately update prior information as changes take place. Although these reporting requirements may align with FinCEN's purpose--to safeguard the financial system and promote national security--many businesses, practitioners, and owners believe these requirements will likely be an intrusive burden.

Owners have concerns about the security of their personal data. Practitioners are struggling with the lack of definitive guidance. However, businesses not complying willfully could be subject to penalties of $591 per day and $10,000 per year.

Listen as our panel of tax reporting experts explains how to prepare for the Corporate Transparency Act. Tax advisers working with businesses, trusts, and individuals must ready themselves for this new onerous reporting requirement.
