CTR Filing

Currency Transaction Reports are triggered automatically when a single transaction or aggregate daily transactions exceed $10,000:

Transaction ──► Amount Check ──► Over $10,000?

                              ┌──────┴──────┐
                              ▼             ▼
                           File CTR       No action
                           (FinCEN)

The pkg/payments package detects CTR threshold crossings for both single transactions and daily aggregates.

SAR Filing

Suspicious Activity Reports are filed when the surveillance system escalates an alert:

  • Filing deadline: 30 calendar days from detection
  • No notification to the subject (tipping off is prohibited)
  • Retention: 5 years from filing date
