Allow me to set you and all others straight ...the $10,000.00 reporting requirment means anything the US Treasury deems as cash....ie...bank checks (not drawn on your bank) money orders,cash,gold,silver pre 64 US coins the only thing not classified as cash is a personal check...it has your name on it! As a business owner I am required to keep all cash transactions on the books for a full calender year from date of purchase if the client exceeds $10,000.00 in purchases using anything but a personal check it becomes reportable Who Must File Form 8300?

Forgot to ad....the only difference with this new expanded reporting reqirment in the "patriot act"is that it gives immunity from lawsuits if a business blows a call in reporting you to a federal agency....

Thanks for the offer, but I don't see where you have added much. You say $10,000 cash transaction in one day....
so what did we miss?....that you have to keep a record for a year? You may be irritated at the law...but don't take it out on us,
we were asking questions...we didn't write the law.

pre 64 US coins

It must really irritate you when they come in with $10,000 worth of pre 64 US coins...:)
