If you’ve submitted a BOI (Beneficial Ownership Information) report under the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), you may be wondering how to confirm whether it’s been received and accepted by FinCEN. Here’s how to check your BOI filing status efficiently.
Step-by-Step Guide to Check BOI Filing Status
- Visit the FinCEN Website
Go to the official FinCEN BOI Filing portal. - Log In to Your Account
Use the credentials you used during the filing process to access your dashboard. - Access Your Submissions
Navigate to the “Submissions” or “Filing History” section to view your filing details. - Check Status
- “Submitted” or “Accepted” means your BOI filing was successful.
- “Pending” may indicate the report is still under review.
- “Rejected” will include the reason and correction instructions.
- Download Confirmation
Save a copy of your confirmation receipt for your records.
What If You Didn’t File Yourself?
If a third-party service or filing provider submitted your report, request your FinCEN Filing Receipt or ask them to check the status on your behalf.
