Fill the fields for an agricultural-land report by a foreign person
Key facts
- Human involvement
- YellowClose supervision
- How AI is used
- Make one row per field in 7 U.S.C. § 3501(a): legal name and address, citizenship if an individual, entity type, country, and principal place of business if not an individual or a government, type of interest, legal description and acreage, price or other consideration, transferee details if there is a transfer, and the agricultural use intended on the report date. Copy the file. Leave a blank where the file is silent. Do not decide whether the person or the land is covered.
- What the lawyer must review
- Section 3501(a) requires a foreign person who acquires or transfers an interest, other than a security interest, in agricultural land to report to the Secretary of Agriculture not later than 90 days after the acquisition or transfer. The report uses the form and procedures the Secretary sets. Subsection (b) is a one-time report for interests held the day before the section's effective date, due 180 days after that date. It is not the deadline for a current deal. You decide whether the person is a foreign person and whether the land is agricultural land, and you file the report.
