    Will the Bureau of Internal Revenue be alarmed when you buy a car using cash? Considering your current income is small and just started working several months.

    Are car dealers required to report such covered transactions to AMLC?

    i dont think theyre required. its their primary business to transact huge amounts in the first place... its not like theyre laundering money by selling vehicles.

    Ok. So I guess he might not get reported then. Unless he withdraws at least 500k, then the bank reports him. Read somewhere that AMLA is being revised to include not just financial institutions. Not sure it it has been applied already.

    withdrawing from his acct wont trigger any alarm. its receiving that triggers an alarm..

    If you have nothing to hide then you have nothing to fear.

    If buying cash, dealers would suggest to have them in manager's check instead. It beats the hell out of folks counting bills.

    Last year, VW and Honda asked us to prepare the amount in manager's check when we took delivery of the Jetta and Civic.
