Banking transactions report to IRS

[jfugger]

Hi, would like to know if US banks report to the IRS or send you a Tax form when you pass a certain threshold in deposits i.e. Paypal sends you a tax form when you have had deposits over USD 20,000. This question is pertaining to PERSONAL banking current/savings account.

I believe they deal with⁤ personal accounts in the US like they do in most European countries and report any⁣ personal account to the IRS.

So in Europe all personal accounts are reported no matter the amount?
I thought that‌ would be valid only if someone surpasses a specific threshold...like 10K or 100K Euro

All bank account holders will be reported to the IRS. Even if you have a‌ signature on a corporate account your info ends up on the desk of the IRS.‍ Banks will collect your data and just submit it (The bank will take no risk⁠ for you). FATCA
