File Amended FBARs

Post by cat »

I have recently come across some information in one of these posts stating that the correct way to report an RRSPs on the FinCEN Form 114, one should select "Securities" from the dropdown list under #16. Type of account.

I have always selected "Other" and enter "Registered Retirement Savings Plan" in the associated text field. Should I file an Amended FBARs for the last 6 years?

Of course not
Fbar is to report accounts
You did
Had there been a problem Treasury would have told you
After 20 years, I am severely cutting back on responses. Do not ask specifically for my help. There are a few others on this board that can answer most questions. All the best
