When you file a CTR on an individual, as I understand it, if the transactions are involved with a joint account you have to include both individuals on the account. In other words you must check Box B for multiple persons. If I understand it correctly we have to assume that the transactions conducted where on behalf of both individuals. Am I interpreting this correctly?

That is true, Sheldon, if you're dealing with a deposit, since all joint owners of the account benefit from the deposit.

However, if you're dealing with a withdrawal, you start with the assumption that only the transactor will benefit from the withdrawal unless you get information to the contrary.

Thank you. Apparently we've been doing everything right so this is good reassurance.
