CTR Required for Joint Account Withdraws?

Answered by: 

Question: 
Joint account; A husband withdraws $100.00 from account 123456789 at the ATM. The co-owner withdraws $10,000.00 from account 123456789 at the branch. Is a CTR required?
Answer: 

Unless the bank has knowledge that the husband and the co-owner both benefited from each withdrawal, a CTR is not required as neither party withdrew over $10,000. You may be thinking of the 1995 guidance that requires that a CTR include all account owners if a deposit is made to a joint account. It is addressed by question 14.http://www.fdic.gov/news/news/inactivefinancial/1995/fil9570a.html
