Sole Proprietor
The name for running a business by yourself. Legally, you and your business are one and the same, with no separate legal entity for your business.
LLC
“Limited Liability Company”, this is a hybrid entity between a sole proprietorship and a corporation that possesses the advantages of both. Forming a limited liability company (LLC) should be among the first steps you take as a new business owner. Creating an LLC can help you protect your personal assets while adding legitimacy to your company LLCs are the option of choice for small business owners as they are easy to manage and provide the benefits of a corporation while lacking their complex structure. Taxwise, they operate more like a sole proprietorship.
Corporation
A complex legal structure that is a separate entity (providing legal protection to owners) from the owner and comprises directors, officers, and shareholders. Forming a corporation limits an owner's legal and financial responsibility for the activities and debts of the business. Plus, incorporation provides a structure that can attract potential investors, and may help a new business establish credibility with customers and potential partners.

BOI FILING

File Your BOI Now and Secure Your Company from Penalties!

In 2021, Congress enacted the bipartisan Corporate Transparency Act to curb illicit finance. This law requires many companies doing business in the United States to report information about who ultimately owns or controls them.


Effective January 1, 2024, many companies in the United States must report information about their beneficial owners - the individuals who ultimately own or control the company - to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), a bureau of the U.S. Department of Treasury
Filing is simple and secure. Beneficial ownership information reporting is not an annual requirement. Unless a company needs to update or correct information, a report only needs to be submitted once.

Your company may need to report information about its beneficial owners it it is:
1. a corporation, a limited liablity company (LLC), or was otherwise created in the United States by filing a document with a secretary of state or any similar office under the law of a state or Indian tribe: or
2. a foreign company and was registered to do business in any U.S. state or Indian tribe by such a filing.

When Do I Report?

FinCEN began accepting reports on January 1, 2024.
•If your company was created or registered prior to January 1, 2024, you will have until January 1, 2025 to report BOI.
•If your company is created or registered in 2024, you must report BOI within 90 calendar days after receiving actual or public notice that your company’s creation or registration is effective, whichever is earlier.
•If your company is created or registered on or after January 1, 2025, you must file BOI within 30 calendar days after receiving actual or public notice that its creation or registration is effective.
•Any updates or corrections to beneficial ownership information that you previously filed with FinCEN must be submitted within 30 days.
