I was able to find more info.  The link above is a presentation published in 2016, which explains the reporting requirements on FBAR and /or Form 8938 for different types of Canadian Registered Plans.

• Canadian RPP (are considered employer sponsored  401K plans) are not reportable on FBAR, but is reportable on FORM 8938.  (This is what my client has)

• Government sponsored - plans RRSP (i.e. IRA) are reportable on both FBAR and Form 8938.

• Tax Savings Accounts (i.e. ROTH IRA) are  reportable on both FBAR and Form 8938, and investment income is taxable in the US to the taxpayer/holder.

Am I reading the presentation correctly?
