I thought the 2021 version was set up to capture the big foreign entities, this 2024 change captures small American owned mom and pop level businesses too.
Trump's Treasury has rescinded that 2024 addition of small corporation compliance, so it's essentially reverted back to the original 2021 act, or at least that was my interpretation - so the large corporations still have to comply with the 2021 act.
There is no such thing as "Small Business Corporate Transparency Act". I also didn't see anything in the article relating to 2024 additions or changes. It's merely informing you of who has to fill out the BO forms and why. Which doesn't matter anyway because the got rid of it for all Domestic Reporting Companies, which inherently includes all US small businesses, they just added the U.S. Citizen part to make it seem like a good thing.
There isn't 2 seperate acts nor was there anything added in 2024. The CTA was passed in 2021. It was paused in early Dec 2024 reinstated later that month. The only thing that has changed is the deadline.
Long story short. Everyone will cheer "winning" because they don't have to fill out a form that has no more info on it than a 1099, while israel continues to be able to hide their ownership of "american" companies.
