Chase gave me an account and I don't even live there yet! Have had it since December 2013 and opened it with my UK passport, cash deposit and a letter from HSBC here in UK. No SSN or visa required.

Hope this helps.

Change banks.

I went to the bank with my wife and they added me to her account after I entered the US on K1.

At that time I did not even have a SSN. The bank manager "fudged" that part with bits of my UK National Insurance number.

We updated the account as soon as I had a SSN, a few weeks later. I do live in " I hear Banjos " land so they might have not been following the rules as strictly as some other places.

Bring your UK passport and other related immigration documents. They might have to contact there head office on how to deal with a legal immigrant opening or being added to an existing account. America is still a very insular country at a domestic level. Try getting a UK Sterling tax refund cheque converted to USD and lodged into your account.

Thank you, goodnight and may your gods go with you",

I've had Bank of America accounts since 2005, the first one was opened just with my passport, I've been an F-1 all this time and they've never had an issue. They even gave me credit cards.

Wells Fargo gave me an account through my husband, no SSN as I don't even live there yet. They are very helpful.
