Is CPP reportable on FBAR

[Jason]

I have been in the US for several years now and have been filing the FBAR every year, but now I realized that I also have a CPP and have never put that on the FBAR. (I do not receive payments from the CPP, and have no information about its balance)

Is the CPP reportable on the FBAR? If so, can I just start adding it to my FBAR now and check balance unknown, or do I need to amend all previous FBARS?

Jason, the rule has been that any foreign holdings which accumulate to more than US$10.000 must be declared on the FBAR.
If you contact CPP, they can tell you the dollar amount of any holdings you may have with them. If less than $10K, then you are find.
Otherwise, you have some amending to do.
Hope this helps .. good luck!

CPP is NOT an account, much less a foreign account. It does not go on FBAR.
You have no imputed or otherwise value in CPP.

" If less than $10K, then you are find"
Your FBAR analysis is as poor as your spelling and will mislead someone here.

10k is an aggregate amount. Since he is already filing FBAR before deciding if another account must also be included, if such account must indeed be included (and forgot about CPP, just generalize here), then even if it has $1 it must be included.

AS I said, CPP is not an account.
