My cousin passed away and his wife was from Japan. She moved back to Japan and didn’t fill out the right paperwork to earn permanent legal citizenship. She was emotionally devastated and just didn’t get the paperwork done in time. So now they won’t let her back in the US.

Can the bank do something like this
