Hello all,

First I'm not citizen, don't have SSN, just here in USA for a language study, I opened account with bank and 2 weeks after I just got mail that indicate "incorrect or missing information" with W-8BEN enclosed, they ask me to fill out on the line "Supply reason for US mailing address".

Question is what does it mean?. a reason why I'm living here in this address?. because I'm here for study so I have to rent an apartment, should I put this on?

If someone could explain what exactly is mean so I can answer them correctly and wouldn't be affect to my account (of course I still need my family support) I would be appreciate, sorry for my terrible English, as I said I have to study more!

Thank you in advance
