(a) Subject to the limitation set forth in this paragraph, U.S. financial institutions are authorized to unblock and return to the remitting party funds blocked pursuant to this part that came into their possession or control through wire transfer instructions or check remittances, provided those funds were not destined for an account established on the books of a U.S. financial institution by a person whose property or interests in property were blocked immediately prior to January 19, 2001. Funds otherwise eligible for release under this general license, however, may not be unblocked and returned if they were remitted by or destined for a person designated in or pursuant to 31 CFR 587.201(a). (b) Funds blocked pursuant to this part that were destined through wire transfer instructions or check remittances for an account established on the books of a U.S. financial institution by a person whose property or interests in property were blocked immediately prior to January 19, 2001, remain blocked. If such funds are not already held in the account for which they were destined, they must be transferred to such an account by October 15, 2001, and maintained in blocked status pursuant to §586.201(c).
