Interactive Brokers - Compliance questions regarding deposits

Status
Not open for further replies.
Anyway, while I sympathize with OP, I think that he must have done some big mistake in his opening forms and/or with the account usage. I find IBKR compliance quite easy to deal with and I never had any problems with them even when using the most obscure structures. I am a client since about year 2000.

Hi there, I'm not sure what they will do. BUT the question is quite simple, is it clean or not? If it is clean - just give the everything. I think they like most the tax returns. In my case they asked questions nearly a year, but where happy when I gave them my tax declaration. I'm pretty sure they didn't check anything. They just want to make sure that nothing is wrong with the money. Of course you have to explain where it comes from.
There is some risk that they close you account. In my case I couldn't trade and so on for a while. But not sure about withdrawals.

I wouldn't say IBKR is not trustworthy! They are very slow. This kind of stuff make take months. BUT they don't try to steal your money for sure. Just follow regulations.
 
I'm about to open an account with them, and wouldn't ve known not to write self-employed as an occupation. Most funds would come from Paypal or from Wise. Any recommendation on how to open the account and not raise flags? How easy is it to withdraw funds later on?

Really IBKR is quite easy to open, just tell them what is your business and don't do anything too stupid like saying you don't have experience with trading or that your net worth is X and then deposit X*10

Dunning-Kruger. I read the study in 1999. A former professor sent it to me because I disliked "those" people - Thanks for sharing this. I needed to laugh.
