BTW, when I was trying to open LLC account, I was told by tdameritrade website that this account can't be opened online and they will email me forms. I didn't go all the way. But did you get the forms? What forms' question exactly gave you a pause in opening account?

I started a single member LLC in the US, got a an EIN From the IRS but E-trade and TDA refused to open an account saying the member has to be US resident. (I Have a US mailing address through the registered agent).
Anyone had success with this as a foreign resident? Perhaps an other type of company?
LLC is a pass-through entity so if the broker requires US citizenship, it is the LLC GP that will be considered

Yes I mailed in the forms. Few weeks later they mailed their reply saying they can't open an account at this time. I phoned them and the rep told me the reason.
Was there anything in the form that indicated that you are non US resident?Yes I mailed in the forms. Few weeks later they mailed their reply saying they can't open an account at this time. I phoned them and the rep told me the reason.
Yes, you have to specify the address of each member/shareholderWas there anything in the form that indicated that you are non US resident?
Why didn't you specify American address of your LLC? After all you do expect all correspondence to go there. LLC is your proxy in US.Yes, you have to specify the address of each member/shareholder
