Rollovers of individual Certificate of Deposits should be reported on the same Form 2.

Form 2 submissions should contain all transactions, entered in chronological order as soon as they occur, from the beginning of the case until the end of the reporting period.  However, the trustee may seek approval from the United States Trustee to limit the transactions in a Form 2 submission involving a very large or older case to the annual reporting period.  Such approval would only be granted on a report-by-report basis.

If the trustee is serving as a successor trustee, Form 2 should begin with the balance turned over by the previous trustee, thereby remaining consistent with the successor trustee’s bank statements.
