Investing in the USA?

I'm a Permanent Resident in the country. My parents (Canadian citizens) want to invest in some real estate and financial investments/products. They have no current status in the USA.

Since every financial institution/etc. requires a SSN or Tax ID number for opening an account, what's the best way to do this? I read that they can obtain a ITIN (Tax Identification number) if they file their income tax returns in the country but can they do that if they have no status here?

Thanks!
