We ask you to complete the form and provide your ssn or tin so we can update your account with the correct information. If a person is working in the united states on l1 visa, a natural question arises about that person's tax obligations in the united states;

The bank wants this so they can report your transactions to the irs if needed or provide tax documents on interest from.
