Question

Sara is 16 years old and would like to open a bank account. What will she need in addition to her parent or guardian? Select four answers.

government-issued ID or birth certificate
high school diploma
money to start the account
social security number or immigration form
proof of address

Answer 1

Select these four:

- government-issued ID or birth certificate
- money to start the account
- social security number or immigration form
- proof of address

A high school diploma is not required. Banks typically need ID, a tax ID/SSN (or acceptable immigration document), proof of address, and an initial deposit (and a parent/guardian as co-owner if she’s a minor).
