MASSIVE NEW FEDERAL REPORTING REQUIREMENTS WILL START IN 2024
Do you own 25% or more of a limited liability company, partnership, or other small entity that owns real estate or operates a small business (a "company")? Are you a company's president, CEO, general counsel, or COO? Do you play a similar role even if you don't have that title? Do you have "substantial control" of any companies?
If you answer yes to any of these questions, you will be required to register or be registered in a new federal database beginning in 2024.
Each registration must include your name, date of birth, residential street address (a business address will not suffice), a driver's license or other identification number, and a photograph of the document proving that number. The majority of this data will be gathered online.
If anyone registered in the database moves to a new residence, the new address must be reported within 30 days.
Any company that already exists as of January 1, 2024 will need to register by the end of that year. Companies newly created on or after January 1, 2024 will need to register within 30 days after creation. Special registration requirements apply for anyone who files the paperwork necessary to create companies. It remains to be seen whether those requirements will lead law firms to stop handling that work.
