Abstract: This final rule modifies the way Banks will use the form to exempt certain customers from the requirement to report to the Treasury a customer's cash transactions exceeding $10,000. This action updates this ICR to reflect the addition of 31 CFR 103.27(a)(3), 31 CFR 103.27(d), as being renewed as part of this control number. The two additional references constitute two hours to the existing burden. This action is the result of the reallocation of burden from 1506-0009 to 1506-0012
