I couldn't find anything on their website or via google linking them to any bank setup services but it seems they have some kind of referral arrangement with Bank of America.

We tried this. Had a meeting at RBC last week to setup with their cross border banking but they don't do it for businesses, only personal accounts. Other options were TD, but we refuse to give them any business whatsoever and I think HSBC has something along the lines too but after researching we found that it isn't really what we need.
However in an interesting turn of events, I contacted Bank of America and asked them if a company based in Canada with a Nevada corp could open a bank account online or over the phone and they told me yes. As long as we have the corporate articles, a green card with SSN and a physical address in the states they will allow us to open accounts online and we have all of those things, so problem solved! - It's probably a safe assumption that the other major banks in the states would offer this as well, but if they don't then we just have to go with Bank of America.
