I'm a Canadian, can i apply for US visa card and banking account?

Question

Hi guys,

I'm wondering if I can apply a US visa card and banking account in USA banks by using my Canadian ID and address?

Do I need to provide a US address too?

Say My US address is in New York state

Can I apply a credit card and banking account at a bank in Washington state ?

Thank you !

MM

Answer 1

Not for a credit card, you can not because you don't have a US social. For a checking account you can. You will need to provide the proper id. Canadian Citizenship Certificate Card, also a second form of ID, and a W-9 tax form is what is needed for a account in Washington State. This being said that you open it with Bank of America.
