Deductions & credits

@kleo123321  sorry for the confusion ----   the threshold for reporting is  either at least US$10,000 on the last day of the calendar year or US$15,000 at anytime during the year.  After that the form actually asks for the  balance on the last day of the year ( if I remember right ).  So in your case  when you  search for  form 114 ( even google would do it  ), it will take you to FinCen.gov and choose individual -- which will then take you to the BSA-e-filing  site and let you  file on-line or download the form , prepare and  then comeback and submit the form.  You just answer the questions posed and you are done --- the real interest  for the FinCen is to  connect all the foreign  bank accounts to  US persons who hole them -- they really don't care about the amounts in the account  ( that is my view ).   So in the referred bank account where you had a US$40,000 and then US$52,000 was deposited --  your maximum for year was  US$ 92,000 and on the last day of the year you had  US$12,000 after the  US$40,000 debit.    Don't worry, just answer the questions on the form 114 and you are done --- this is no a tax issue/event.

 

Does this help ?
