Hey FYI,
I think your information is all correct. My apologies, I shouldn't have used the word "transfer."
I'm not quite sure what the rest of your post was in regards to since you are USA based and get paid in U.S. dollars. I was originally replying to rjmore's post - it sounded like he's going to be a HKG based pilot who used to/or still lives in the States (like me) and has an account there and wanted to get his money to his U.S. bank account without incurring many fees.
I'm gonna talk to e*trade HKG today and get more info. Or if anyone wants to call them in HKG their local # is: 3191 3000
Aloha
