The pendulum on whether most businesses need to file their FinCEN form per the Corporate Transparency Act went back and forth in February 2025. Additionally, an appellate court told an entrepreneur that his farming and horse racing activities were “indulgences” and not businesses. Also, a trial court ordered penalties abated for the initial trust return filed by a widow. 

Attend this webinar for information on these unique instances and other developments from February of 2025.
