As of June 23, 2008, your REALTOR® will have to ask for identification, as in picture I.D. In June 2007, the federal government approved amendments to regulations under the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering)and Terrorist Financing Act (PCMLTFA). The amendments, which come into effect on June 23, 2008, are designed to broaden the scope of record keeping and reporting requirements. This means that real estate salespersons and brokers will have new obligations under the PCMLTFA.
Requirements as of June 23, 2008 will include a receipt of funds record for all transactions regardless of the amount of funds received (unless funds are received from a financial entity or public body). In addition, a client identification record will be required to be completed with respect to every purchase and sale regardless of the existence of a cash deposit. Salespersons and brokers will be required to verify and record the identification of each client involved in a particular sale.
