In keeping with the Department of Treasury’s communicated commitment to reduce regulatory burden on businesses, FinCEN announced on Thursday, February 27, 2025, that it will pause enforcement actions and not issue fines or penalties against companies for failing to file or update beneficial ownership information (BOI) reports. This is pursuant to the previously promulgated Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) reporting deadlines. Refer to the FinCEN announcement at FinCEN Not Issuing Fines or Penalties in Connection with Beneficial Ownership Information Reporting Deadlines | FinCEN.gov.
Given the recent legal and legislative developments and related confusion and uncertainty surrounding CTA/BOI reporting, FinCEN’s announcement pausing reporting deadline enforcement is welcome relief for reporting companies and professionals providing CTA/BOI-related services to reporting companies.
FinCEN noted its intent to issue an interim final rule by March 21, 2025, with updated guidance on extending BOI reporting deadlines. In addition, FinCEN stated it plans to seek public comment on potential revisions to existing BOI reporting requirements and will consider those comments as part of a notice of proposed rulemaking to be issued later this year to determine whether modifications to the reporting deadlines are warranted.
PA Annual Filing Update
It is very important to note that the Federal BOI announcement above is different than the new PA Annual Report Filing reports that are currently due. As a reminder, we cannot file these reports, so we encourage you to do so as soon as possible. For more information, see the following:
Here is a summary of the Annual Report filing requirement, providing extremely helpful information to answer questions and start the filing process.

Beginning in 2025, most businesses will have to file a new annual report with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Exceptions include general partnerships, authorities, fictitious names, financial institutions, and other very narrowly defined business types. There are no exceptions according to the size of the business entity.
Annual filing reports must be filed online, and there is a $7 fee (except for non-profits).
Filing deadlines are as follows:
- Corporations and non-profits: June 30, 2025
- Limited Liability Companies: September 30, 2025
- Limited Partnerships: December 31, 2025
The Pennsylvania Department of State is supposed to mail notices of reminders to file but will not be doing so until two months prior to each deadline. Knowing that mail is not always reliable, we would encourage you to file your annual report now.
Here is a summary of the Annual Report filing requirement, providing extremely helpful information to to answer questions and start the filing process.

The filing of this annual report is different from the filing requirement for the Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) from the federal government. Many other states already have an annual report filing requirement, so we do not expect the court challenges or implementation issues that we have seen regarding BOI filing. We would encourage you to file this annual report with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania now.

We want to provide a new update regarding the Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) reporting requirements under the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA).
On January 23, 2025, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a stay of a nationwide injunction previously put in place by a district court in Texas (Texas Top Cop Shop, Inc. v. Garland No. 4:24-CV-478 (E.D. Texas 12/3/24)). Despite this development, it’s important to note that a separate injunction from another Texas court (Smith v. U.S. Department of Treasury (January 7, 2025) U.S. Dist. Court, Eastern Dist. of Texas, Case No. 6:24-CV-336)) remains in place.
The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) announced on January 25, 2025, that reporting companies covered by the BOI reporting requirement do not have to file the reports (and cannot be penalized for not filing) while an injunction remains in place.
However, any small businesses that fall under the CTA may still choose to submit BOI reports voluntarily.
In legislative developments, two bills, HR 425 and S 100, have been introduced in Congress to repeal the Corporate Transparency Act.
As always, we will stay on top of the fast-changing status of this law and keep you informed of all developments as they occur.
