I want to expand on this topic by asking a question. I don't yet have much information on what actually occurred, but from what I have been told, a custodian completed two separate $10, 000 cash transactions on behalf of two different minor children. I don't yet know the details beyond that, but I do know that a total of $20, 000 in cash was received by the same individual, who was identified to be the custodian for both.
Is it then correct that a CTR would be filed, naming each individual child on whose behalf the transactions were conducted? The teller obtained the custodian's information at the time of the transaction, but I'm sure there is scant information on hand for the two minors.
The filing of a SAR is also possible, obviously, but I want to be clear about how to properly advise on the CTR filing first.
