Opening business bank account un US from Canada

[Andrés Uribe]

Hello again BP Forums!

I am wondering who is investing in the US from Canada, or abroad? I live in Canada and will invest into the state of PA remotely.

I need to know if there is a way to set up a back account for my LP and LLC? I have called a long list of banks and credit unions to set up a business bank account for me. But they cannot do it since I cannot be physically present. I have tried a POA, tried to add a member into LP, but it keep getting turned down. Any suggestions or something I could ask or say that could help me get a bank account? Is a business bank account even necessary?

I cannot travel to US since restrictions coming Canada would take me away from my job.

Seems for now like the only option is an online bank. Any recommendations?

Thank you all!

Andres

@Ali L. Thank you! I opened an account with Wise, and so far is going ok. Not going to last forever as I prefer the security of a bank. Just a temporary fix until I can travel to US to open a bank account.
