I was hoping someone from US might help, but I'll bite. I think that your best bet is to hire a lawyer and give them power of attorney to do it for you.

Especially if you plan on incorporating in US, I would not try to do it without consulting an attorney. There are differences in which state you start the business and these things matter.

I am Canadian, so no first hand experience in the US, but consulting a lawyer is probably the best bet. On all accounts.

Good luck.

Ok, thanks for the answer. I had already consulted from one law office but haven't heard back yet.

The problem seems to be the EIN code.

According to this Law Office Samuel Anders one option (and apparently in my case the only one if I want to do this remotely) is to buy an existing company that already has an EIN number set.

I now contacted Mr. Anders, and principally asked about the costs.

I'll continue asking from other places too. Will be posting here the answers I get in case there are others in a similar situation.
