This is one of the WORST fucking laws ever devised by a criminal Congress.
Imagine:
You set up a corporation in any State.
Federal government wants YOUR name, address, SSN, driver's license number registered in a federal database.
If you move, you MUST update within 30 days.
Fines exceeding $100,000 are possible.
And PRISON.
They want to TRACK YOU ...
Makes no difference if a few wealthy get their paid employee to put their name in instead.
Average Joe is now REQUIRED TO REGISTER IN THE DATABASE, subject to massive fines AND PRISON for not disclosing information that the 4th Amendment says you don't have to disclose.
That means YOU.
Absolute garbage law. On hold, but what happens at SCOTUS?
Exactly what was said. Trump vetoed this. Wildly unpopular w American people. They are blitzing bc it’s a carcass, atp under injunction in effect last I checked, so currently unable to take effect. It’s an attack on small biz.
Thisnis the ultimate challenge we can put forth for all illegal taxation. Corps are formed as a taxing body. They suck you in with the write offs. I'm frankly tired of funding the devils shit.
What gets me is that they have most of this info when I file both my corporate & personal income taxes. There are already databases......not that we need anymore.
As of December 28, 2024, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals has reinstated a nationwide injunction blocking the enforcement of the CTA, causing further uncertainty and confusion among businesses.
No, he’s correct & it is true. My accountants were bugging me about filling this shit out; I refused, and found some really good links talking about the injunction. I’ll try to find & post here.
My accountants told me the same and I've been dragging my feet. I'm still unsure what to do. The latest I received was this:
BOI Filing Update for All Business Owners
At 1:30pm Eastern time this afternoon, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit issued an order granting the government's emergency motion for a stay of the preliminary injunction put in place by a U.S. Federal District Court in Texas earlier this month, which had temporarily struck down the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) and suspended all reporting requirements.
So, what does this mean?
Well, it means that the looming deadline of January 1, 2025 for all reporting companies under the CTA to file their beneficial ownership information (BOI) reports is now reinstated. Companies and beneficial owners subject to the CTA have until the end of NEXT TUESDAY to file BOI reports or face penalties.
In its opinion, the Fifth Circuit Court said that the disruption caused by this stay would be "minimal".
Is it just me or does “financial crimes enforcement network” sound like they could be on the giving end of committing financial crimes, rather than the detection and prosecuting side?
There are some interesting arguments. First is State jurisdiction over corporations:
Judge Mazzant's opinion strongly rebuked the CTA for overstepping constitutional boundaries. He noted that corporate regulation has traditionally fallen within the states' jurisdiction.
Second digs into the whole "Do corporations have First Amendment rights?"
The plaintiffs, including small business owners and a trade association, argued that the CTA compels speech and association, infringing on First Amendment protections.
I have a feeling this particular law is just the tip of the iceberg that dredges out a whole bunch of garbage to the full view.
Corporations are legal creatures of state legislatures through chartering. They should not be persons unless the law stupidly so stipulates. If rights are endowed on individuals, they cannot be uniquely endowed on collective associations, since the association enjoys individual rights individually. As a collective, they can assign the exercise of their rights (under conditions specified) to their agents (corporate officers) in order to buy, sell, make goods or provide services, and pay wages.
Of more concern (to me) is the situation of the corporate shareholders, as they are presented as owners---but are denied the perquisites of owners. The major shareholders have the power of direction, so there is only pure democracy (i.e., tyranny) as its governing principle. There are seldom any shakeups resulting from a shareholders' meeting. I think it would be interesting for applicable law to say that any 10% of shareholders could compel a vote of confidence in the prevailing Board of Directors et al. The governing majority would probably vote it down easily. But it would be an interesting twist to require that if over 50% of the outvoted minority still voted for a loss of confidence on a second ballot, then it should prevail. On the principle that if the overwhelmed minority were not uniformly content to go along with the majority, then the majority does not get to rule. Then open ballots for new directors. (In other words, the evidence of proper stewardship of the majority shareholders would be in the relative acquiescence of the minority to the majority decision prevailing. This would be an inhibition of the temptation of the majority to run roughshod over the minority.)
Human rights should apply to individuals only. Corporations are much more powerful than individuals, and they don't die. They could trample individual human rights more than a government could. In fact they can combine and rule governments (State Street, Black Rock, Vanguard). There was an 1868 law about railroads that deceptively gave corporations human rights, and it has set many tangled precedents.
Can somebody tell me why we keep referring to this “House Resolution” as a “Law” that “goes into effect” on Jan 1 2025 (edit: 13th, it’s listed different dates in different places) when it hasn’t passed the senate or been signed by the president, according to Congress.gov?
These criminals keep acting like it’s even a law, and by the way it’s “H.R. 2513” from 2019 and goes into effect on January 13 2025 kek.
Where did this monstrosity actually get passed? Do they only need to write House Resolutions in order to get us to respond to things like they’re legitimate in any form now?
Why does a court even need to block it if it’s not a law? Is it a preliminary injunction (lawfags, is that the right term?)?
We are all about to find out whether or not there is any right at all to privacy and anonymity.
This looks like a typical burocratic overreach where they want you to do their job for them. If they have probable cause they can find anyone they really want. Those complying will never be the ones they're gonna need to be looking for anyway. If they can find you, arrest you, jail you etc then they don't need this law at all whatsoever!
People form LLCs all the time; leave it to fed.gov to presume that act of doing so implies potential criminality
I won't comply. In fact I'll dissolve my corporation and operate without any of their laws or regulations. No point in being legitimate for a bunch of crooks.
I was told that they’re looking to backenforce it, which is also illegal of course, so even if you dissolve your corporation, this law still makes you in violation for having owned a corporation in the past.
Haven’t confirmed this in the text, myself, so ymmv. Could just be something some scum sucking bureaucrat put out there as a scare tactic.

IF the USA is a corporation - then does this "Law" require the "OWNERS" to be disclosed?
IF the IRS is a corporation - then does this "Law" require the "OWNERS" to be disclosed? etc.
If the FEDERAL RESERVE, etc, et al. is a corporation - then does this "Law" require the "OWNERS" to be disclosed?
IF EACH OF OUR Social Security Number(s) is an INCORPORATION of each individual, then does this "LAW" require that "OWNERS" to be disclosed? Knowing if each person is a corporation or a citizen may/will clarify a lot of things for us...
I have always wondered about these types of things... For better or worse, we may gain clarity over these things...
Because I am the President of the HOA in my community and oversee and help make decisions of where money is spent; I was required to give personal information. I was/am so unnerved by this invasion of MY personal info. A big reason why I may move out of this place🤔…
Sounds like a reasonable angle, I assumed it was for all those fraudulent PPP loan scammers, I just had to report info on a side project llc, was stressful because it was formed over 10 years ago and I had misplaced some important documents but I got it completed and don’t have to face the threat of 2 years imprisonment, or $500-10,000 daily fines until completion lol
Never assume just because you followed instructions that you're in the clear. They will find a way to say you did something wrong if they want you to go away. You put the noose around your own neck. Now they just have to pull.
great find! In general chat I think I’ll ask a question later if anyonehas studiedtrustsand how old-wealth families like Rockefellers and Kennedys have used trusts instead of corporations. Trusts in certain jurisdictions offer protections for elites hat have different rules than corporations.
Could it be related to all the Federal judges appointed by Biden before his time is up? I know he appointed quite a few, I believe, in December.
Another issue, with Biden, if he is in cognitive decline and has been since the FAKE election, then if he does anything with his diminished faculties-would the things he does/did be null and void? Plus it was a FAKE election that should settle his becoming president. Then we will have to look at FAKE Obama!

How are WE going to get screwed on this...
Exactly what was said. Trump vetoed this. Wildly unpopular w American people. They are blitzing bc it’s a carcass, atp under injunction in effect last I checked, so currently unable to take effect. It’s an attack on small biz.
Totally agree. I have one rental property and was advised to put into an LLC for asset protection and that means I would need to file.
Yes you would!
Thisnis the ultimate challenge we can put forth for all illegal taxation. Corps are formed as a taxing body. They suck you in with the write offs. I'm frankly tired of funding the devils shit.
What gets me is that they have most of this info when I file both my corporate & personal income taxes. There are already databases......not that we need anymore.
Trump said in the clip, "You better make sure I win." So yes, I think he is going to do something about these huge flaws.
Exactly.

Satire? Sauce?
It’s true happened. It was blocked then unblocked the blocked again by the 5th circuit. https://news.bloombergtax.com/daily-tax-report/corporate-transparency-act-blocked-by-us-appeals-court-again

Look into private membership associations.
When did this get through both Houses of Congress? Did Biden sign this into law? Does this go back to Trump’s 1st term?
“On January 1, 2021, Congress, by a two-thirds vote in both the House and Senate, overrode Trump’s veto and passed the CTA into law.“
