Federal Reporting Requirement Update as of February 7, 2025. On January 1, 2024, The Corporate Transparency Act ("CTA") was enacted by Congress. Many small businesses are required to report information about the individuals who own or control them. Beneficial ownership reports must be filed with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), a bureau within the U.S. Department of Treasury. However, due to ongoing legal action, the beneficial ownership reporting requirement has been suspended. Voluntary filings are still being accepted. We encourage you to monitor any new developments with the legal action by periodically visiting FinCEN's website.

To file online today, simply click on Annual Reports Online.

If you must file using a paper annual report, you may download your entity's preprinted paper form by using our Create a Preprinted Annual Report Form service.

Misleading Solicitation Mailings. Our office is aware of misleading solicitation forms being mailed to entities urging them to complete the form and to pay a much higher fee. However, these mailed solicitations are not authorized nor recognized by the Secretary of State's office and are very misleading. Our office only sends annual report filing reminders by email. If you are unsure about the legitimacy of a solicitation form you have received related to corporate annual reports or compliance, please contact our office at the number provided below.
