According to Michael Frias, a spokesman for the FDIC, Banks arent legally required to verify legal status. There is no federal law which requires banks to verify the immigration status of foreign account holders. My bank's compliance officer laughed his butt off when I read that to him, then rattled off a list of laws and regulations that contradict this idiot.

Any bank walking the line is OK by me.
