Notes: Statute now allows the deferral of reporting for remittances of less than $50. A holder may carry over any property year to year until the first year the holder has $50 to report. The property is not exempted from reporting, simply delayed when only smaller amounts are held. This deferral applies when the report as a whole is less than $50, not the individual property amounts.
