Our Corporate Compliance and CTA Filing Service: What It Covers
Incorporating in the US is only your first step. Neglecting your federal Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) report, state annual filings, and internal corporate records invites state dissolution and steep federal fines. We track these deadlines. We file the paperwork.
Our team manages three compliance areas: the federal BOI report under the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), state-level annual reports and franchise taxes, and corporate governance documents like operating agreements or meeting minutes. We handle the administrative filings so you can run your business.
For a detailed breakdown of CTA rules, affected entities, and statutory deadlines, read our Corporate Transparency Act guide. This page explains how we manage these filings on your behalf.
We File Your BOI (Beneficial Ownership) Report for You
Under the 2025 FinCEN change, most US-formed companies are exempt from the federal BOI filing; only companies formed abroad and registered in the US report. So our first job is to clarify whether your company is actually obligated. The CTA mandates that covered entities report beneficial ownership data to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). Regulatory updates and federal court rulings throughout 2024 and 2025 altered these filing deadlines and exemption criteria. Errors or late submissions carry severe civil and criminal penalties.
We manage this entire reporting process. Our attorneys verify your company's reporting status, identify the correct beneficial owners, prepare the data, and submit the filing directly through FinCEN's official BOI channel. We also file required amendments when your company's ownership or address changes. Let us handle the details.
State Compliance and Keeping "Good Standing"
Federal filings are only half your burden. Your state of incorporation requires regular annual reports and franchise tax payments to maintain active status. Neglecting these state filings leads to administrative dissolution. This freezes bank accounts and voids corporate contracts.
We monitor your state deadlines, file annual reports, pay franchise taxes, and maintain your registered agent service. If your business operates across multiple states, we centralize these distinct filing calendars. One missed state deadline can halt your operations. We prevent that.
Corporate Governance and Protecting the Liability Shield
Your limited liability company (LLC) or corporation only shields your personal assets if you respect corporate formalities. Commingling funds, failing to hold annual meetings, or keeping disorganized records allows creditors to pierce the corporate veil during a lawsuit. Do not risk your personal savings.
We draft and organize your operating agreements, shareholder resolutions, meeting minutes, and stock ledgers. These documents protect your corporate structure during audits, venture capital due diligence, or an eventual business sale.
The Legal Consequences of Non-Compliance: Why Professional Support?
Corporate neglect triggers compounding legal risks. A missed BOI report invites federal fines; a forgotten state filing triggers administrative dissolution; missing minutes destroy your liability shield. A single calendar oversight can dismantle your entire US business structure.
In the files we manage, clients rarely ignore the law; they simply miss a deadline. Our team acts as your compliance safeguard by mapping your deadlines and filing documents before penalties accrue. We monitor FinCEN and state registries directly to track shifting regulatory dates and penalty structures on your behalf.
Compliance and Immigration: Protecting Your E-2 or L-1 Status
For foreign nationals operating on investor or intracompany transfer visas, corporate compliance directly impacts your lawful status. Maintaining E-2 or L-1 visa status requires an active, legally operating US enterprise. An administratively dissolved company cannot support a visa renewal. Your status depends on your compliance.
In our team's practice, we integrate corporate compliance directly with immigration strategy. We coordinate our E-2 investor visa service and our L-1 transfer service with your ongoing corporate filing requirements. If you recently incorporated, review the necessary next steps in our guide on what to do after forming a US company.
