While this decision preserves the CTA’s reporting requirements, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) has extended the compliance reporting deadline to January 13, 2025, giving entities a brief window to file their reports while appellate litigation continues. Businesses are encouraged to work with deliberate speed to meet this deadline.
