The requirement to report any CASH transaction 10,000 or over is not a myth.

OK. Understood. But OP's transaction was not cash, it was probably a check. We now need a banker to tell us if an EFT is deemed cash by the law.

The same reporting requirements apply to any monetary instrument over $10K coming from outside the US. And the crime of structuring also applies to such transactions.

FYI - the point of my CPA friend's comment that the $10,000 number was a myth was not that it didn't exists, but that the reporting threshhold for non payroll deposits is actually much lower.
