Presenter: Deborah L. Crawford, gettechnical inc
Date: Tuesday, November 13, 2012
Time: 2:00 - 3:30 pm Central

Focus:
The deadline for using FinCEN’s new CTR is March 31, 2013.

As you work with the new CTR, questions about the form and its completion will arise.  This informative program will cover the new CTR line-by-line.  You will receive a practical guide with over 50 examples of completed CTRs – from the simplest to the most-complicated transactions.  This valuable resource will step you through many common (and not so common) member transactions involving the CTR.

In addition, this webinar will examine different types of entities and how to complete the CTR if any entities/people have deposits over $10,000.  Special fiduciary relationships (e.g. UTMA, attorneys-in-fact, guardianships, etc.) and how to handle large deposits or withdrawals with these accounts will be addressed.  Join us for a comprehensive look at the new CTR.
