Better to open up the new account and trade out the old account when you can and covert to cash.Start the new account and begin using it for new business only.There is no law that says you can't have two brokerages. I have two.....some people have as many as four....

Yup, my experience also. Tied up for months - US stocks almost 5 months. Also required numerous phone calls and trips to the bank. Won't be doing that again. Cash is the only way to go.

Also, on one account which happened to have more than 20% foreign holdings there was a vicious circle of penalties, penalties paid, waiting for paperwork, only to incur another set of penalties. That one cost me big to get out.
