What do you mean by "sign off"?

I honestly don't think a sig is necessary for a single check, a situation like Arch just described.

They're mainly concerned about large amounts of cash.

Now that I think about it, I know I've deposited single checks for over that amount without signing.

Sorry, just saw that.

"Sign off" means the bank would verify who was making the deposit (there were several people permissible) and verify their last four of their SS number. Thinking about it, this was probably because it was a corporate account and that would be the only record of the "who".

They told me they had a digital form they had to file with the IRS that, besides the "10000 rule", included "suspicious deposit activity"... or even if they thought I was making numerous, smaller deposits to circumvent the $10000 reporting protocol.

Nope, It is a 10K transfer through a bank. and you can give 15K these days.

Business is a bit different.

For individuals, it gets flagged.

Every wonder why when you deposit a check for over $10,000 if takes maybe a week or more to clear?

It takes banks maybe 1 minute to see if the funds are available.

Making a big deal out of Hunter Bidens alleged actions is a way for the Right to distract from the things that happened on Jan 6.

If Hunter is guilty,, nail his butt to the wall....

You mean the Hunter Biden story that surfaced well before Jan. 6th even happened?

Doesn't matter! We need to stay focused on Jan. 6th!

We should absolutely focus on Jan 6th .... it was an attempt to prevent the peaceful transition of power.

Hopefully there are folks that can multitask and keep an eye on more than one thing at a time. It's not an either or situation. But if it was - Jan 6th is way more important to this country than Hunter ever will be.

And there's already a thread discussing jan 6. Why do the liberals on this board need to hijack every thread to talk about Trump?

It's been that way forever. Rather than acknowledge, accept responsibility and propose a solution.....just attack the other side. What about.....what about......

You brought up Jan 6th... Apparently that makes you a liberal.

I only responded to your comment, not sure that makes me a liberal.

Seems like I was wrong to think people can multi task.

Got to focus on something now that we aren't all that focused on masks and what not. How about a focus on what is happening in this country?

Why does that matter., Wait,,


Jan 6 happened at the Behest of Trump directly and his minions... He attempted to overthrow the election process... That's pretty clear at this point.

Nothing is clear about Biden..., Yet. When it is, if he's guilty of something, punish him...

When Trump is found guilty, I do hope you won't say let him off the hook....

Uhh, I DIDN'T bring up January 6th.

I DIDN'T call you a liberal.

Most of us can walk and chew gum at the same time. When reading an entire list of news stories, if all you can manage to do is focus on one of them and can't focus on any of the others, that's a you problem.

The war in Ukraine is a big story in the news as it should be. Inflation is a big story in the news as it should be. The Hunter Biden story is in the news as it most likely should be. Hell, even the Will Smith story has garnered a lot of headlines. So out of all that is being highlighted in the news, you think in your addled mind that the news and people are only focused on January 6th?

But just for the sake of information, let me explain why it's still in the news. There was an attempt for the first time in our nation's history to overturn our election outcome. Trials are still being conducted and the outcomes of those trials and information as to how this all came about is still coming to the surface. It was all predicated on a lie. And the same is still spreading that same lie. He's currently holding rallies across the nation continuing to say the election was stolen which is the very cause of Jan. 6th.

So I suggest if you want people to quiet down about it at least some, you should convince Trump to shut the hell up.

THAT. WAS. THE. WHOLE. POINT. OF. MY. POST...

That's not a "me" problem... that's a problem of the the majority of this board (and this country) that screams "TRUMP!" every time ANY other story is mentioned. I responded to Daman, who obviously can't walk and chew gum.

This place!

I can and often do walk and chew gum... It's really funny how some folks on here think that taking down Biden suddenly masks Jan 6 and Trumps actions. It doesn't.

I sure hope that when the facts are clear, you'll be willing to admit that Trump is a crook and deserved jail time.

Thanks for explaining what you meant to say. I based my comment on what you said.


I gave you all of the reasons why people are focused on it. Nothing in your response addressed any of that. And if you'll look, your response was to Memphis, not Damon. I can see where it may have however have been connected to Damon's comment in an indirect manner.

You mean like when the facts were made clear on...

Collusion?
Russian Spy?
Hunters Laptop actually existing?
Hillary and the DNC paying for the Steele Dossier?

You STILL haven't admitted to any of those lies you told.

I agree with the GOPers on this one! We really need to investigate Hunter Biden, right after we resolve Hillary's emails.

Discussion-wise, keep in mind we are in PP.

Action-wise, keep in mind are are talking about our federal govt.


Expectations, and all....

Oh I get that on the part of our government. What I don't get is how people try to say reporting on a story is a distraction for something else. The news reports dozens of stories every day. It seems as though they're trying to indicate that if any one story gets reported one or becomes the headline story, people can only focus on that story alone and it somehow makes the other stories go away or hidden. That's simply false.

Yep, banks can call an office to check funds availability, and at that precise moment they could be available, but two minutes later a WD could be made or a different check clear making that verification no longer valid. That is why bank will put holds on checks. When you verify if a check is good, the bank the check is drawn on does not "hold" those funds. They are still free to be accessed by the accountholder.

I am slightly confused by some of you other your terminology. Worked for a bank for over 25 years and unless you wrote that $10,000 check to yourself and deposited it, there is no way you know when it clears. If you mean when the bank gives access to the funds, that is a different story and different banks have different policies on funds availability. The bank I worked for allowed you to clear checks the same day of deposit regardless of type of deposit, check or cash. WD cash against float funds was different. Also the size of the check did not matter, what mattered was if it was a local check, government check, payroll/work check etc .

Also by "flagged", I assume you mean the requirement to complete a CTR, Currency Transaction Report. Customers tend to think this document is some sort of fire alarm that causes the FED to send agents out. Our office filled out tons of these and I don't recall a single customer ever informing me they were questioned about it. Also, it doesn't take $10,000. There is a SAR, Suspicious Activity Report that can be competed for a much lesser amount. This is completed for many reasons, one of which if the bank employee has reason to believe the transaction could be problematic.

Two groups are going to come out of this looking as bad or worse than hunter biden and “the big guy”. First the lame stream media. The ones who hid, concealed this story from the American people. We know why they did it, they feared this information would cost “their candidate” the election. Also big tech who censored information about this story off their platforms. Again, they did not want to take a chance of hurting joe’s chances.

The other group is the 51 national security “experts” who said the laptop was a Russian disinformation campaign. I think they are either democratic partisans or dumb , not sure which.

The president has repeatedly denied discussing Hunter's business ventures with his son. Earlier this month, White House press secretary Jenn Psaki was asked to confirm if Biden's statement that he has not discussed with his son his overseas business dealings still stands.

"Yes," Psaki replied.

Now the plot thickens...


Biden met with Hunter Biden business partner at White House in 2010: Report
Meeting with Joe Biden was one of 19 visits Eric Schwerin paid to the White House, according to visitor logs

Hunter Biden's most prominent investment partner had an official sit-down with Vice President Joe Biden in 2010.

Eric Schwerin, president of the Rosemont Seneca firm, met with Biden while Biden was serving as vice president under former President Barack Obama, the New York Post reports. Schwerin is linked to a variety of Hunter Biden's foreign business dealings, past and present. Hunter's finances have come under intense scrutiny as evidence mounts showing his father was used as leverage in negotiations.

The meeting with Joe Biden was one of 19 visits Schwerin paid to the White House, where he also met with a variety of aides to the vice president, according to archived visitor logs from the Obama White House.

Oh that BIG GUY.

No doubt the noose it is tightening.

What's funny about that?

Yes, around Trumps neck

Did you even bother to read it? At the beginning it said that Biden denied talking to his son about his business ventures. Then went on to say he talked to someone other than his son. Nothing in it refutes what he said about talking to his son about his business ventures. And did you notice no link to the article was posted? Yeah, that's humorous. Meanwhile nothing about the report that Kushner received billions from the Saudi's right after his dad left office. So yeah, the whole lot of them are hilarious.

TDR, it's real.

Yeah, he still controls the Republican party. He's still the front runner to win the 2024 nomination for president. He's still conducting rallies spreading his lies and supporting candidates in the upcoming election and you say we should all just shut the hell up about him.

Maybe when Republicans stop treating him like their Lord and Savior and his crazy conspiracies like their gospel people will shut up about him. But not until then. It seems accountability only works in one direction for you.

So, you endorse the fact that every shortcoming with Biden is and should be met with "but, but, but... TRUMP!" ??

No I don't. Some people rely on that too heavily to make excuses for Biden. But there's also the opposite going on which was what I was pointing out. There are those that try to use Trump as to why you should never question Biden then there are those who try and claim since Trump is no longer president he should not be discussed or talked about. I don't agree with either of those two extremes. I think both parties are guilty of not giving us reasonable and qualified people to choose from as our president.

Fate, it's less whataboutism and more internal belly laugh and mocking. I mean, we even victimize you guys inside your own conspiracy theory threads. I got a guy on ignore that simply cannot NOT be the victim. I will say this much for the party of cuckoo puffs and autocracy, y'all funny as hell.

Fun story, thanks.
