Generally, you are considered a U.S. taxpayer if you are a:
U.S. Citizen
Legal Permanent Resident of the U.S. (Form I-551 “green card” holders); or a
Foreign National (including Visa Holders) that meets the Substantial Presence Test for the
current calendar year.
Substantial Presence Test - Typically, you are obligated to pay U.S. tax if you have
been in the United States for 31 days during the current calendar year and 183 days during the
3-year period that includes the current year and prior 2 years (fractional number of days from each
prior year). Some exceptions do apply.*
* If you are not sure of your U.S. tax status you should contact a tax professional
for
assistance.
Select the state where your permanent residence is located:
A single $2,500 minimum deposit is required within 60 days of account approval.* Upon account funding, a $300 Account Opening Fee will be immediately deducted from your account balance.
Accounts that are NOT funded within 60 days will be closed.
Note: You must maintain a minimum monthly average balance of $2,500 (after deduction of the $300 Account Opening fee) or a minimum combined account balance of $10,000 in the consumer deposit accounts you own with us to avoid a monthly maintenance fee.
*Funding deposits received for an amount that is less than $2,500 are, at the discretion of the Bank, subject to return to the customer.
Unfortunately we are unable to open your account digitally at this time. We hope to support your country
