Leaving funds in US account
Hi,
I will be moving to the US from the UK on an H1-B visa for a job that lasts 3 years. At the end of that period, I expect to have saved a sum of money in a US bank account. My question is this:
Am I allowed to keep a bank account open in the US under my name when I leave permanently and, if so, are there some restrictions (e.g. on the duration for which it can be left open)?
The reason being that the exchange rate from USD to GBP may not be favourable at my time of departure.
Many thanks,
James
