If you travel with more than $10k to or from the US, you have to declare it, but it's still not illegal. If you want to take $100M in cash from the US to Mexico, there's nothing illegal about that, but just expect a lot of scrutiny about where that money is coming from and going to.

I don't think you need to fill out IRS paperwork if you deposit more than $10k. Have done this before (e.g., house sale) without any additional paperwork. However, I think the bank has to notify the IRS when this happens (which it sounds like is what the OP was trying to avoid).
We call that added value
