*** ALERT [updated March 3, 2025] ***
Important Update on Corporate Transparency Act – Beneficial Ownership Reporting Requirements

The Treasury Department announced on Friday, March 2nd, that it will not enforce any penalties or fines associated with the beneficial ownership information reporting rule under the existing reporting deadlines. Further, it will not enforce any penalties or fines against U.S. citizens or domestic reporting companies or their beneficial owners after forthcoming new rules take effect.

The Treasury Department will further be issuing a proposed rulemaking that will narrow the scope of the rule to foreign reporting companies only. Treasury takes this step in the interest of supporting hard-working American taxpayers and small businesses and ensuring that the rule is appropriately tailored to advance the public interest. For more information, read the U.S. Department of Treasury’s press release.

NOTICE: New Federal Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) Reporting of Beneficial Ownership

System Upgrade In Progress

Campaign Finance, Lobbyist Reporting, and Online Voter Tools are expected to be offline from April 9th at 5:00 p.m. MDT, through April 12th at 8:00 a.m. MDT to complete a system upgrade.

Per Idaho Code 67-6607, campaign finance is reported monthly during a campaign’s election year. The deadline for the March report falls on Saturday, April 10th. Due to the interruption caused by this upgrade, political treasurers will be allowed to file the March report until 11:59 p.m. MDT on Monday, April 12th.

While we do our best to ensure compliance with all deadlines in statute, the timing of this release is critical to ensure minimal (or no) impact to the May election cycle. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
