Moving to the USA.
I have substantial savings in cash where I normally rotate between HISA bank promos (2.8-3.3%~) such as: B2B, Simplii, Tangerine, Manulife, etc. I want the funds liquid.
I would prefer to continue milking HISA bank promos and keep most of my savings in Canada as a non-resident. I have no immediate need for money and am happy with the returns. I have no desire to convert it all to USD at this time. HISA returns in the USA are much lower as well.
My question, are most banks still available to non-residents? Has anyone been in a similar situation? Did your banks want to close your account once you notified them of non-residency? Ive read online Simplii does not allow banks to non-residents.
