last I heard it was supposed to be late this year. not sure if that was a rumor or a stated fact though, as I don't recall where or who I heard it from. Sorry I can't be of more help!

It was last year when I was told that it was expected in 9.09. I love the sound a deadline makes when it goes whooshing by!

In fairness, there have never been any official announcements, only guesses.

As David said, we don't need any more to read right now! crazy

Someone from the OCC said in a telephone seminar a few months ago that the manual would just have a few revisions for the CTR exemption changes that were effective early in 2009 and the addition of a few new "high risk" products/services (ex - remote deposit capture, IATs).

At the FBA's BSA/AML Conference this week a senior FinCEN official said the revision was expected "...prior to year end." Members of the regulatory panel later offered the same observation.

Areas where "new" materials are expected include:

* remote deposit capture,
* bulk cash smuggling,
* third party processors,
* revisions to enterprise-wide compliance programs, and
* streamlined and re-organized mandatory minimum procedures.

Ditto to Ken. At the ACAMS conference in September, a panel from FinCEN as well as an individual who is working on the project, stated before year end we will see a revision.

Well it's nearing year-end 2009 and wondering if the updated manual will be a Christmas gift before Dec. 25th or a New Year's wish and issued on Dec. 31st???????

At a conference I attended - I heard by February 2010 to expect it. So I believe it will be soon although I wonder about the year-end date.......it's fast approaching.

The message is crystal clear: Don't expect to see it until it's on your virtual doorstep. It will be here when it gets here.
