SAR & Account from other Bank - 10/31/19 05:13 PM

I'm working on a SAR for structuring where our customer cashed two separate checks drawn off of another bank. Do I list this bank in Part I line 27 and if so, how would i get their TIN? I was reading the instructions for that line and it seems like I would need to address that FI here but other than the narrative there isn't a space for that institution's name, only their TIN and account number (which we obviously have the account number from the check).

Go here:

https://www.ffiec.gov/hmda/hmdaflat.htm

Download the TS Records file under TS & MSA Info for 2016.

It has the EIN for every HMDA reporting bank. Not 100%, but a good start.
