Nobody is reading this thread right now.
I called them, but they said they can't help me as I don't have a US presence. I only have brokerage accounts on my LLC and that's not sufficient for them.
citi bank poland and usa have no link at all. Same with santander bank. That will not work
Get an ITIN, that will surely help, I called some US banks and some required for ITIN while some didn't, it's best to have it, having it doesn't automatically oblige you to pay taxes or do any reports.
ITIN takes 2-3 months so apply asap

I see. Thanks for the response. I tried getting a bank account at Santander USA through my private bank manager here in Warsaw, but indeed they couldn't do anything...
I will try to get an ITIN, however I have zero idea how to do this without sending my original passport (which I really would not want to do). So far I did not see a CAA agent here in Poland.
Any idea how likely it is that they want to see my identification? Can I only send the W-7 form with a copy of my passport?
I found a few service providers on Fiverr (there was a solid one From California - some Chinese people) and I found another service TheITIN. Fiver one seems better. You don’t need to send any documents and Fiverr ones need video call.
strange, I have account with them with (planned) Miami presence. Did you try to flag your LLC as managing own asset and planning to invest in the US (stock market) and maybe real estate?
I didn't, but I will try again.
Btw, it looks like IBKR will be making an exception and will allow me to transfer funds back into my personal account. That would be the most optimal scenario for me.
What’s wrong with using a highly rated agency selling a service on a platform for a specific task?Are you seriously suggesting that you rely on random Chinese freelancers on Fiverr to assist with services for your business, including setting up bank accounts?
And then people wonder why things go wrong
No one is saying go hire Abdul from Islamabad to form LLC or do accounting. But rather someone who has a license from IRS to submit an application for a number you will get for just giving your identity and address. It’s not rocket science buddy.
And who said anything about asking them for help setting up a bank account?
Lot of people type things out without thinking and giving a minute to think about what problem the person is trying to solve - and how to analyze risk/reward ratio of what you are doing…
Problem: OP wants ITIN but doesn’t want to send his original passport outside the country.
Ok, let’s see does a solution to this exist?
Yes.
Does this solution seem legitimate? Let’s check verified reviews / services offered by provider / price…
Do reviews seem good? Are they real? Yes. Paid customers are marked as such.
Price? Seems in range of what is expected by researching around and not too good to be true.
Seems Legit? From the looks of it, yes.
What is the point of failure? They will fill the form wrong. How to fix that? Double check what they filled. How to assure that? Ask before ordering.
Again, I am not recommending anything specific - OP must do own risk/reward analysis and research properly.
But instead of being snarky try to be helpful and give a suggestion to solve the problem instead.

On Fiverr, make sure you find somebody who has reviews older than 3-4 months for the ITIN. Many times the "delivery" on the platform happens within a few days and they get a review, but the waiting time to get the document is 2 months from the IRS.
Some scammers use the platform to sell as much as possible, sending empty envelopes to the IRS for the tracking ID's, during a few months then disappear. Anybody with reviews going back 4+ months should be good.

Because it needs to be either certified by a CAA agent or (absolute bizarre) you have to send an original ID.
Yes, why should I not send my original passport to the USA and next hope they will return it in a good way???
Btw, I mostly want an ITIN to be able to easier open up a bank account...
For now I only have a IBKR account on my LLC... Will this be sufficient or will they first check if I have to pay taxes in the USA?
