To open a bank account, you will typically need to provide the following:

• A valid, government-issued photo ID, such as a drivers license, state ID, passport, or military ID.
• Personal information, such as your name, date of birth, and U.S. residential address.
• An initial deposit, although some banks do not require this.

In addition to these requirements, there may be other documents or eligibility requirements depending on the bank and the type of account you want to open. For example:

• Some banks may require two forms of personal identification and proof of residence.
• If youre under 18 years old, you will need a parent or guardian over 18 to open the account with you.
• If youre a parent and want to open a bank account for your child or teenager, your qualifications may need to be approved to open the account.
• If youre worried about your credit score, ask the bank whether or not they will pull your credit history to open a checking account.

Its important to check with your bank to determine their specific requirements for opening an account.
