Problems With FinCEN 114 or the FBAR Form

So many clients have problems with this form.  The key things to remember are

1. You must download it to your hard drive before trying to view it.  Don’t try viewing it in your browser.

2. You must use the most recent version of Adobe Acrobat.

3. It doesn’t work on Macs.  It doesnt work on your cell phone either.  Government forms work best on Windows Machines.
