Neteller TDF 90221

[cbloom]

I'm trying to fill out TDF 90221 for my Neteller account but I can't find the info on their web site, and they aren't responding to my emails to support.

Has anyone done this and have all the info?

Well this is what I found :

* NETELLER (UK) Ltd (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the NETELLER Group) is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority in the United Kingdom as an e-money issuer (FSA Register Number: 229737; UK VAT GB 002 4257 28)


Key registered offices

* NETELLER PLC, 1 Circular Road, Douglas, IM1 1AF, Isle of Man

i'm trying to fill this form out as well and am ignorant of a great many things, such as what country the money is being held in. is there a resource thread for us dumb people who still would prefer to not mess this form up?

Please provide a link to the form and/or the questions you need answered.

Keep in mind: It's not like if you say the money is in the Isle of Mann and it's actually in Switzerland that the US Treasury is going to flip out. You're making the effort to be legal and legit. They just don't want American (criminals and überrich folks, specifically) parking large sums offshore that they don't know about.

My guess is that the only info they truly care about is how much you have outside the US.

Can someone explain this "does filer have a financial interest in this account?"

Their instructions aren't exactly helpful for this one. Edit: or if they are i'm just really dumb [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Are they asking me if I have authority over the account? Like, if I didn't I'd have to list the other person's name who does have interest in the account? I'm confused.

my understanding is that they are trying to seperate out someone who just manages an account from someone who actually has money in the account. you're the latter.

i wrote isle of man b/c that's where they're based but as somebody else it's not like they'll think you're trying to hide anything.

my accountant advised me to fess up about all previous years in which i was supposed to have been filing this form along with a letter that said basically "i only recently found out that neteller might be reportable. i'm sorry if i was supposed to file for previous years. here's all my info. i'm not trying to hide anything."

I thought it was established by someone smarter than me that this form wasn't necessary for Neteller because it isn't a bank account. Is that not correct?
