They will need the SWIFT codes, your bank should be able to help. If she is a US citizen she may not have had a W8-Ben in place especially if they are in her name (and not "held" by the brokerage). I would be more worried that the brokerage did hold them, and gambled them away and is now stalling. | |
| Jun 11, 2017 at 20:00 | comment | added | timday | I've had some similar issues as a UK resident with some shares in a US-listed company (from some employee share scheme) held on JPMorgan's adr.com. I get the dividend cheques fine and can deposit them here, but it seems to be hard to sell the shares and repatriate the proceeds to the UK without jumping through a lot of hoops to open a US bank account (or something like that; it's been a while since I looked into it). | |
