HR 323 & CTR Exemptions of Seasoned Customers

Question: 
How does the bill (http://www.bankersonline.com/security/hr323_010907.pdf) the House has passed for CTR exemptions of seasoned customers differ from our current ability to exempt customer who have been doing business with us for 12 months or over?
Answer: 

ong>Answer by David Dickinson:
I generally don't read proposals and bills until they become final laws (in other words, this is one that I don't know a lot about). However, I believe the difference is simply you won't need to renew the "seasoned customers" every 2 years. That's it.

Answer: 

Answer by John Burnett:
One other provision (again, if passed in the current form) is an explicit inclusion of sole proprietorships. The other piece of the bill, the inflation adjuster, has a terrific potential for cutting down on the number of CTRs. The current "more than $10,000" threshold was established in the 1970s. Inflation since then would likely kick the trigger up to greater than $25,000. Don't get your hopes up, the bill could languish in the Senate or be severely altered.
