This webinar will discuss what practitioners need to know about the reporting requirements under the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) and the potentially severe penalties associated with non-compliance. This course will also examine the numerous safeguards to protect an accountant from the uncertainty associated with providing beneficial ownership reporting (BOI) services to clients under the CTA. This examination will discuss the contractual fences to help minimize the risk of providing BOI services such as the use of effective engagement letters and management representation letters.
Our presenter will provide clarity on several grey areas of reporting under the CTA such as which entities are required to comply. Our discussion will also include a legislative overview of state enacted or proposed legislation similar to the CTA and related additional reporting requirements as well as recent legal developments potentially affecting current CTA legislation.
