anyone here have an account with them??

I opened a checking and savings account last year and since I didn't make any deposits they closed it. Now to reopen it I had to re apply again,

The issue now is my application is under review and they want a copy of my Permanent Resident Card? Which I don't have. I'm kinda confused as I don't remember this a requirement the first time I opened an account with them.

At least you arent among the people with accounts at Bank of America.

Bank of America is the worst bank in the country. Just get a credit union. Credit unions deliver much more on banking services for much less fees.

This recent trend of requiring green cards or passports for bank accounts is very scary.

Having said that, it doesn't seem like you NEED to have one...maybe something triggered them to ask for more info:

What you need to apply
Each account owner must be 18 or older and provide:
A Social Security or Tax Identification number
A U.S. residential street address
Legal name
Birth date

Important Information About Opening a New Account
To help the U.S. government fight terrorism and money laundering, federal law requires us to obtain, verify and record information identifying each person opening an account. We may ask to see your driver's license or other identifying documents.
Also yes, BOA and Chase are both the worst for people in our situation.

Thanks! Those were the requirements I read the first time I applied. I'll just have to call them to figure it out.
