FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can a non-resident open a US account?

Yes — with the right company, EIN and documentation, which we prepare.

Can you guarantee approval?

No — the bank decides; we maximise your chances with a clean, complete file.

Can you guarantee the account will be approved?

No adviser can. Banks decide on their own criteria. We prepare your file to the standard that gives it the best chance and are candid about the options.

Do I have to visit in person?

It depends on the institution and its current procedures. We tell you what is required for your case before you commit.
