BOI reporting corrections for errors

US business owners and LLC founders must correct inaccurate Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) reports within 30 calendar days of becoming aware of an inaccuracy. Similarly, updated reports for routine changes must be filed within 30 days after the change occurs.

While correcting an inaccuracy within 90 days of the original filing may help mitigate penalties, the primary 30-day awareness window for corrections remains crucial. All corrections and updates must be submitted electronically via the FinCEN BOI secure e-filing portal.

If an individual's FinCEN identifier is used and subsequently updated, associated BOI reports are automatically updated. Companies that become exempt after filing should submit an updated report to reflect their new status.

Failure to comply with these deadlines can lead to civil and criminal penalties. It is essential to assess whether a change requires a correction or an update, gather accurate information, and submit electronically, while maintaining thorough records of the process.
