It is intended to give meaningful information about the preparation, use, and value of Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) filed by financial institutions. Program Effectiveness: BSA E-Filing Supervisory Users have the option of tracking filing statuses, either by viewing the status of their own submissions or viewing the status of submissions from all of their organization’s users. It is important to note that status tracking does not allow any individual, Supervisory User or otherwise, to view the contents of a filing, only the status of that filing within BSA E-Filing. The BSA E-Filing System retains administrative data. Acknowledgement Data is retained 30 days after being opened or 60 days after being posted, whichever comes first. Alert Data is retained for 30 days after posting. Track Status Data is retained for 5 Years (1825 days) after achieving "Accepted" or "Rejected" status. Annual Review is performed by Federal Managers Financial Integrity Act (FMFIA) to ensure accuracy and promote consistent tax administration. 3.11.250.6 (01-01-2023) Program Controls Internal Systems that output to FinCEN and BSA E-Filing Compliant Data is a CTR system that is part of the overall customer account and transaction processing system(s). The systems automatically route CTR data to the Compliance Department, where staff can review the CTRs online and approve them for submission.

The batch file is submitted to BSA E-Filing once every 15 days and acknowledgements are routed back to the submitter. 3.11.250.7 (01-01-2023) Terms/Definitions/Acronyms The following table has a list of words which require interpretations: Word Definition Example of using a word that is open to interpretation.
