Open your US bank account here
If you have your LLC you now need to open bank accounts (the first two are free so open both!). I'm going to share some links below to what I think are the best options. They are my affiliate links and I'll address them separately so you can understand the benefits. When applying, be honest but always emphasize more on how you will help your US clients. Relay financial - I have a great relationship with relayfi and they have told me that applicants that use this link have a greater likelihood of being approved. I use relay for my business and it has been great.the account is free to open. https://app.relayfi.com/register?referralcode=jimbaker Mercury bank - this is another great option. Again focus on how you are serving clients in the US. This link should give you bonuses once you are approved. The account is free to open. https://mercury.com/partner/jamesbakercpa Wise - this is not a bank but is a useful way to get paid and pay other people sign up with my link to get free transfers up to $500.. the account is free to open but there are small fees to open different currency accounts https://wise.com/invite/ahpc/jamesb2812 Stripe - if you are selling anything I would first try stripe.com for payment processing. I don't have a special link for them. Let me know if there are other accounts you may be interested in, how this goes for you and which you prefer!

What are you struggling with right now?
I have clients in every niche who are experts. I am exploring the idea of collaborating with them to create exclusive content for this group. Let me know here what would be most valuable for you right now. Also look at other responses and give a like if you are interested in that too - as we'll be starting with the most popular topics
Looking for legit options for a US physical address + proof of address (budget ranges)
Hey everyone, I am looking for legitimate ways to obtain a US physical address that I can actually use for compliance purposes (KYC/AML), ideally with acceptable proof of address where possible. Context: I already have my ITIN. The goal is to open US bank accounts with a reliable address, and later be able to apply for a (secured or unsecured) credit card and other US services that typically require a US address and address verification. I am specifically looking for:โ†’ Providers for a US physical mailing address (not just a PO box), e.g., CMRA/virtual mailbox services, coworking/business addresses, etc.โ†’ Realistic options for address verification: what documents are typically accepted, and which providers can support this in a compliant way (for example, bank statements, lease agreements, or other legitimate documents depending on the situation). If you have recommendations, please include:โ†’ Provider name and your experienceโ†’ Approximate pricing tiers (low / mid / premium) and what each tier actually includesโ†’ Any limitations or red flags (banks that reject certain address types, common compliance issues, etc.) Important: I am only interested in legal, compliant solutions. No fake documents, no misleading setups. Thanks in advance.
