# Is there a one-page guide for staff on thresholds and when to file a report?

## Reporting obligations are covered through training and automated alerts.

easyAML covers reporting obligations through training modules every user completes to identify ‘red flag pattern’ that should be reported and automated alerts in the easyAML portal that flag specific risks and lodgement recommendations.

**Lodgement thresholds and timeframes**

- **SMR (Suspicious Matter Report)** - lodge within **3 business days** of forming the suspicion. **24 hours** if it relates to terrorism financing. Lodged by the Compliance Officer only.
- **TTR (Threshold Transaction Report)** - lodge within **10 business days** of receiving AUD $10,000 or more in physical cash from a customer in a single transaction.
- **IFTI (International Funds Transfer Instruction Report)** - generally lodged by the bank or remittance provider, not by the conveyancer or law firm. Confirm with your bank.
- **UAR (Unusual Activity Report)** - internal only, raised by any staff member into easyAML for the Compliance Officer to review.
- **Annual Compliance Report** - due **31 March** each year for the prior calendar year.

**easyAML platform support**

- **Automated lodgement prompts** - when customer activity, risk ratings, or transaction patterns match red flag indicators, easyAML automatically prompts staff to consider lodgement and routes the matter to the Compliance Officer for review.
- **Red flag training** - every user completes detailed training covering red flags across customer types, transaction patterns, beneficial ownership, geographic risk, and behavioural indicators. Refresher training runs annually.
