FILL IN THE BLANKS FOR EXCHANGE APPOINTMENT FROM CALL:

[  ]  Your appointment is on _________________________(DATE) 

[  ]  TIME: _________________________

[  ]  The Location is ____________________________

BRING TO CURRENCY EXCHANGE APPOINTMENT:

[  ] 3-Ring binder with pockets and tabs for most things you’ll bring to, and in turn collect from the bank (ie. signed doc’s & receipts) at appointment

[  ] Driver’s License

[  ] Copy of Driver’s License ~ When bank keeps a copy of your Driver’s License ask that the street address be masked or deleted.

[  ] Second form of ID (a credit card or passport)

[  ] Other forms of ID which you might need

[  ] Any gift letters (to you) BUT DO NOT PRODUCE UNLESS ASKED.  More than likely, these documents will only come into play for tax time

 [  ] A pad, blue pen to take notes, and calculator and black (UV) flashlight

[  ] IQN / VNN / RPN/ ZWN currencies and purchase receipts

[  ] COLOR COPIES OF IQN / VNN / RPN / ZWN currency and purchase receipts ~ in duplicate ~ to be signed & dated by bank personnel ~ leave 1 set of signed copies with bank following verification of currencies

[  ] Extra note of caution bring photos of a few of your currency bill taken under black (UV) light which demonstrate the anti-counterfeiting features on the bill – leave 1 set with bank as above

[  ]  Black (UV) flashlight ~ to demonstrate to bank personnel your currency is not counterfeit, if bank does not have a De La Rue machine which authenticates currency


ARRIVE AT EXCHANGE APPOINTMENT:

[  ] “I am here to doa ‘foreign currency exchange’ for my ‘IQN Iraqi currency’ for US Dollars.  (Never say “cash out” & likewise never say “Dinar” or “IQD” at this appointment).”

 [NEVER LET YOUR PHYSICAL CURRENCY OUT OF YOUR SIGHT AT EXCHANGE]

 [  ] Have your currencies verified on site, and leave 1 set of signed copies with the bank following verification. 

[  ] Sign FINCEN Form 112 (formerly 104) ~ Currency Transaction Report  ~~    Make sure bank exchanger checks off BOX 33 in SEC II for currency exchange.  It’s an IRS form and you want to be taxed lower for a currency transaction, as opposed to an investment.                                          

[  ]  Spread Fee for Currency Exchange ~ Don’t pay spread fee to bank for reason that you are bringing in a greater amount of USD to bank which would surpass the threshold for such fee were it at the front end.  You may be asked to pay 2% total fees which is acceptable to us.  But they may try for 15% like the Kuwaiti Dinar but don’t pay it& ask bank manager to waive fee.

 
[THIS CHECKLIST DOES NOT COVER EXCHANGE USING U.S. CONTRACT RATES,          BUT INSTEAD ONLY MARKET(FOREX)& INTERNATIONAL RATES ~ SORRY]

 OPEN NEW BANK ACCOUNTS FOR USD CURRENCY:

Be flexible with yourself!  Time is short at your 1st banking appointment.  You may open only two of the five bank accounts per currency listed here.  You might only get to open, ex. Sweep and Major Account but regarding IQN Reserves, if the bank exchanger will wire for your Reserves you’ll need to open at least the additional Bank Wiring Account.    

I'll be opening 5 Non-Interest Bearing (NIB) accounts per each currency.  NIB account is chosen separately for each currency to simplify the taxes and accounting which will follow, and it maintains a higher level of security for you.  Iraqi IQN in particular may be backed by new US Treasury notes rather than Federal Reserve notes and so may maintain higher value as our existing dollar falls.(Prepare for the flip side of the GCR).

#1 Account:  Sweep Account opening to exchange ______ into USD.  You will sweep this account empty the same day into #2 Account the Major Account because initial bank deposit can become public information whereas internal transfers do not. Then close Sweep Account.

#2 Account:  Major Account Internal transfer of all within #1 Account into #2 Account.  From Major Account you transfer any needed money to #3 - #5 Accounts..

#3 Account:  Tax Excrow Account Internal transfer of 55% of Exchanged Total in USD into this account to save for taxes.

#4 Account:  Bank Wiring Account ~ Use for bank wires ex. paying Dinar Reserves ~ possibly close this account immediately after the wire(s) which pay off your reserves to prevent ex., a reverse wire.

#5 Account: Daily Expense Account.

**********

All Accounts Must Be:Non-Testing, Non-Training Accounts and Access Restricted From All Nonessential Banking Personnel.  Also these accounts are not available online

 All accounts must be at zero (0) balance in USD before depositing exchanged funds in USD into accounts.

~ Make two (2) copies of this page for each Currency -- 1 for you & 1 for banker
~ Check off each receipt as it's made and label receipt by type & ##, ex. IQN - #1
