NETELLER CUSTOMERS: FILE YOUR CURRENCY REPORTS
March 22, 2007
Taxable Talk brings us the latest on the saga of gambling financial intermediary Neteller. He makes this sobering observation:
If prior to 2006 you had $10,000 at Neteller and you didn't file the TD F 90-22.1, you should consider filing it today, attaching a note that says you weren't aware of the law requiring notification of a foreign bank account. The penalty for not filing the form is $10,000 (minimum), and it's a felony—you can go to prison for this. Do realize you are likely going to have your tax return audited, but if you're choosing between an audit and jail time, I know which one I'd choose.
