The payments are in follow up to an IRS announcement last month of the intent to take this special step.

By Sarah J. Reusché • January 23, 2025

Amendments to BIPA SB 2929 became effective on August 2, 2024.

This significantly reduces the financial exposure for dealerships. • Electronic Consent: The amendments formalize electronic signatures as a valid means of securing biometric consent, streamlining compliance processes for businesses.
