US Bank Account

[Roger Pearson]

Hi All,

This is a little complicated...

My wife and I are directors in our own consultancy business.

My wife has a contract in the US, working for a UK company and being paid into a UK bank account in GBP. This is all good and is familiar territory.

I will go with her to the US and may be able to get some consultancy over there but I will be paid by a US company in US$ which will be converted and paid in GBP. With the unfavourable exchange rate (from US$ to GBP) it would suit us to open a US business account and have me paid into there until the exchange rates improve.

Is this viable?


Cheers,

Roj
