Hello! Today i woke up to email notifications that all of my QBO accounts were shut down and my fresh deposit was going to have to be held in my quickbooks checking for 180 days. There was no exceptions and this was a "business decision since quickbooks is low risk." No one could give me a straight answer why, no one would help me access my funds, and as a single mom, paid once a month, human i started to panic. I scoured the internet and reddit and was finding little success, and lots of comments of them holding money for even longer then 180 days. I called in twice after my brief 6 am call to try and escalate, i took it to the "level 2/3" tier supervisor for disputes and issues of this nature and both times was met with, exceptions arent made, appeals arent allowed, and there is no chance you will get your money sooner. In fact the second time she led the conversation with "did I not speak to you already this morning?" As if she doesnt see my whole monthly income currently in limbo, but zero empathy. Thats when I noticed a trend of people trying to contact The office of the President and I quickly found this [fillable link](tsp.app.intuit.com/.../oop). I attempted a 6 am hail married it and filled it out. No one really updated how things ended for them other then the occasional confirmation they were still in limbo. Within 2 hours the kindest, most empathetic human from that office emailed me and an hour later she called me to try and help understand what was going on, and how she could possibly help even if it meant just letting me get my funds. She could not make promises but she would try. At around noon, I sent an email just trying to figure out if i would need to find the money again to sustain me this month. A call about 30 minutes later came, the system was wrong, I am in compliance, all of my accounts are reactivated, and my money is now in my brick and mortar bank. I post this in case anyone else finds themselves in this situation, here is a start to finish. I can not promise that is how this will end for you, but please reach out to the Office of the President. They were really what saved the day here.

Ciao a tutti, l’anno scorso avevo deciso di chiudere il mio conto su Trade Republic. Dopo qualche mese, un po’ per curiosità, ho riaperto l’app e ho notato che il conto risulta in negativo (parliamo comunque di una cifra davvero irrisoria). La cosa però mi dà fastidio e vorrei sistemarla definitivamente. Il problema è che dall’app non riesco a contattare l’assistenza per questo caso specifico, probabilmente perché il conto risulta chiuso. Ho provato anche via email, ma non ho ricevuto risposta. Qualcuno di voi si è mai trovato in una situazione simile? Come avete risolto? Grazie in anticipo! Edit 1: Il saldo alla chiusura era 0.00 ma poi è arrivata una imposta di bollo a conto chiuso

Is it mandatory to fill in this document if you invest in American stocks or ETFs? And does the broker handle all the U.S. tax administration once you submit it?
