Does anyone file Department of Treasury form TD F 90-22.1?

http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f9022-1.pdf

" Who Must File this Report Each Unites States person, who has a
financial interest in or signature authority, or other authority over any
financial accounts, including bank, securities, or other types of
financial accounts in a foreign country, if the aggregate value of
these financial accounts exceeds $10,000 at any time during the
calendar year, must report that relationship each calendar year by
filing TD F 90-22.1 with the Department of the Treasury on or before
June 30, of the succeeding year."

Seems that NETeller account at least would certainly qualify as a financial account in a foreign country, and probably gaming accounts as well.

Hmmmmm, interesting. Didn't know about this, thx! Man there's just so many rules and laws you have to know about if you play poker in the US.

most of us can just xfer back funds to our regular accounts
(and pay our taxes on them!)
before we hit 10K at Neteller i think

of course if you make big bank,
you won't be able to swing it,
but i doubt the IRS will mind as long as you give Caesar his due.

Maybe they will, and maybe they won't.

At least it's not more than 500,000 and not more than 5 years in prison. Do you think they'd let you have a computer to continue generating profits in prison?
