Takme, I will still ask you to give them a call ((800) 619-7283).
What I know is that you can transfer money to the bank that you have already linked in Scottrade. You don't need Scottrade Bank (as somebody is claiming above), you just have to link the external bank to your Scottrade brokerage account. My guess is your account has not been linked/verified in your brother's account. Maybe he can start the process of adding your checking account (this is under "Transfer Funds" option in the left). They will go through verification process then he can transfer fund to your account, it typically takes 1-2 days per my recollection.
Again, there might be a better way to transfer fund, so call them up.
