Need help with addresses
I want a commercial and residential address, one for my LLC and one for me for opening bank accounts and credit cards in the US. Who can I connect with for this ?
Guidance Needed: Compliance for a Non-Resident Single-Member LLC (New Mexico)
Hello everyone, My name is Ahsan, and I’m from Bangladesh. I formed a single-member LLC in New Mexico in 2023 to start an online business. So far, there has been no active business income or operations. The only transactions have been: - Paying subscription fees from my US business bank account. - Covering registered agent fees and other costs using my home country credit card. I was aware that New Mexico does not require an annual report for LLCs, but I now realize I may have overlooked other compliance responsibilities. I obtained an ITIN but have never filed a tax return with the IRS, largely due to confusion from conflicting information and my own lack of knowledge at the time. I am now actively learning about US compliance and want to correct any oversights. I would be grateful for clarity on the following: 1. State Taxes: As a non-resident with a single-member LLC in New Mexico (with no business activity), do I need to file a state tax return? 2. Federal Filing: Can I file a zero-income return for 2025, using a service like OLT dot com, even though it’s past the original deadline? 3. Previous Non-Filing: Could there be issues because I haven’t filed anything (for 2023 and 2024) with the IRS until now? If anyone has experience or resources to point me in the right direction, it would be an enormous help. Thank you in advance for your support. Best regards, Ahsan

Question on Prerequisites in US Credit Building
Would this sequence yield maximum results, in US Credit Building? 1) US Residential Proxy, to be used throughout 2) US Residential Address 3) US Phone Number (Tello, etc) -Using US Residential Address, to create 1st Proof of Address by phone bills 4) ITIN, with US Residential Address as mailing address, to create 2nd Proof of Address What can be improved upon?
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!
