If you have a hit from the list, do you still conduct business has usual? I have transmitted the form to FINCEn and I haven't received a response. Can we still send wires and ACH to the item on the list?

I have found nothing that would prohibit you from conducting business as usual (If this is what your bank wishes to do). If you have questions about this issue, please contact FinCEN or your regulatory contact as listed in the FAQ. If you do not know who to contact, post your regulator information and I will try to help.

I am unable to get anyone at FDIC. The one person responsible is on vacation. Do you have the number at FINCEN. I tried to find it, but the only number I could find was OFAC hotline.
Thanks,

Thanks,
The FinCEN Regulatory Hotline number is 1-800-949-2732. This is the contact for FinCEN. Good luck!
Sorry it took so long to post this answer, I was in a meeting for the past couple of hours.

You are not required to close an account or terminate a business relationship, based on a hit. Those would be your choices but you cannot use a 314(a) hit as a reason to sever the relationship.

I thought this was on a FinCEN Q&A that I thought I had a copy of and I thought it was on the ABA site, but I can't locate either (new PC) right now.

Andy, The fact that a financial institution is not required to close the account is listed as number 15 on the FAQs dated 2-03.

And here is the link. FYI, FinCEN took this off their site believing, I suppose, that it gave to much info to bad people.

From the ABA Bank Compliance supplement - July 2003 that I received today:
"Financial institutions are not required to close any account involving a 314(a) subject, another common question according to (Al) Zarate (Senior Regulatory Counsel at FinCEN). The decision to close any account, or to refuse to open an account, rests with the financial institution. However, he recommended that before doing so, financial institutions notify the law enforcement contact listed on the 314(a) request to determine if closing the account would interfere with an active investigation."
