My CA charged my credit card for the deposit but there was no credit check or anything like that. There was no paperwork on my part either. My CA filled out the order request form and all I had to do was sign the receipt for my deposit. I think if I were in the same situation as you, I would probably skip any parts of the paperwork that I felt were unnecessary.

My guess is that it doesn't have anything to do with the Patriot Act and more has to do with Taxes. They want to make sure that you are getting your cash by legal means and paying the necessary income taxes. I have heard about suspicious people walking into car dealerships with a bag full of cash to buy a car and have been turned back because the dealership suspects them to be drug dealers or something to that effect.
