Even if the current value is under $10,000 or all the money has been withdrawn, FBAR should still be filed if the financial account had hit this threshold at any point during the year. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember, the FBAR is not submitted with the tax return, it is filed separately.
