While I am here in the US, I plan on registering with a Canadian broker using my other ID and funding my trading acct.
-- I currently have money in my US acct, how do I transfer the money to my broker without leaving a trail for the IRS?
-- Is offshore incorporation/banking recommended from the very start so I can transfer money from my IBC to my broker or is it better to set everything up when I decide to leave in a few years?
I guess what I'm asking is...what is the best way for me to transfer money from a personal US acct.... to either an IBC or my broker depending which does a better job of hiding the money trail?

1. Check and see if you broker requires you transfer the funds directly from your personal account to the brokerage -- hopefully they do not.
2. Yes, it is best to setup the IBC and bank account first and have new incoming monies sent offshore so you can avoid the hassles of moving new funds around, however there are options as listed below:
A. setup an anonymous (yes, fake info) Liberty Reserve account buy it from a non-US exchanger and then use another exchanger to sell the LR for a wire to the offshore bank. The cost of this is around 5-6% plus banking fees but if done correctly, it will remove any trail from you to the new bank. It is best to do any transfers outbound under 10k also.
B. For clients we offer an offshore trust bank account that can be used to transfer money in/out through a shelf corporation in Cyprus with a UK address so it does not look suspicious. Fees are less than using digital currencies.
