Attach FBAR to form 8891?

Post by TooMuchCoffee »

My account has recommended that I attach my FBAR to form 8891, to show custodian/address of my RRSPs. Is this really necessary?

I guess I just don't like FBARs, and don't want to send them out more than I need to.

Of course not, what a moron you are dealing with. The 8891 already has an address field.
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
