I am not sure, but it seems to me that there is some sort of currency control laws that say that you cannot have 10K or mor ein oyur possession unless you show there is a good reason, like on your way to the bank, being abusiness heading for the bank atthe end of the day etc, and of course banks report deposits of 10K or more. I know of two different people who were not 'in business' who did perfectly legal transactions that left them with 32K and 47K in cash each instead of big checks and who simply deposited it. One recieved a phone call and the other a visit by IRS asking 'what, why, where' etc within two weeks of depositing money. Brian B.
