How do I file a BOI report?
As of December 3, 2024, a federal court order has prohibited the enforcement of the FinCEN BOI report requirement nationwide. Your startup can still submit a report, but the filing is now voluntary. Here's what FinCEN says:
In light of a recent federal court order, reporting companies are not currently required to file beneficial ownership information with FinCEN and are not subject to liability if they fail to do while the order remains in force. However, reporting companies may continue to voluntarily submit beneficial ownership information reports.
More information is available on FinCEN's website at https://www.fincen.gov/boi
As a result of this change, FinCEN has suspended API submissions for everyone, including Clerky. If you still want to file a voluntary BOI report, you can do so directly with FinCEN.
You can learn more about this change on our blog.
You can easily file your startup’s BOI report through Clerky. Go to your team overview page and open the More (···) menu. Then click Submit BOIR. Our tool will walk you through the process from there.
If you prefer, you can also file your report directly with FinCEN on their BOI e-filing website.
