Shabbat Shalom, a few days ago I raised a question about opening a bank account for an Israeli resident who does not have status in the US A good friend of mine starts investing and she can't get physical first. I will thank the answers for valid options only.
I received inquiries from some companies that unfortunately offered the service from a thorough examination I found that there was a legal problem with these companies.
Thanks to Tones and Magical Saturday
There are several options:
1. Transfer Wise- I have not tried but I know that many are very happy with it…
2. Add someone who trusts you as manager in an operating agreement and then he can open an account (you said you live in the US, don't you?). It's a bit crooked but legal for my life
There are people, even here in the forum, who open accounts remotely. Personally I'm not in favor but the people themselves are reliable so I do not know…
4. The best option in my opinion - if she intends to start investing, you should invest first by traveling there and on the way you will open a bank account.
It is also important to note that to start investing, you do not need a bank account, so it can start investing and then, on occasion, flying and opening an account
Hope I helped
Successfully!

Transfer Wise can open…
It's a kind of internet account + money conversions…
As far as the American is concerned, there is no difference in your chest

Here are some suggested solutions:

Also, if there is no need to write checks (in most cases, there is no need), you can use TransferWise's borderless account. Upon opening the account, you receive the details of an American bank account, to which you can transfer funds from the management company or any other entity. The funds in this account can be transferred to various entities in the US or converted to another currency (including NIS) and transfer NIS to Israel. Their fees are significantly lower than the banks.
Converting NIS to dollars and transferring them to the United States can also be done by a number of companies such as Clearshift, Top Wright and others, at significantly lower fees than the banks.
Need to be very careful with this, I have heard of quite a few cases where after a few months the bank must physically reach one of the branches to identify or simply close the account unilaterally with a few days' advance warning.
This is very problematic because of the story of PATRIOT ACT and KYC.
