What do i need to start a bank account at chase?

Question

Answer 1

you need id both pictured and a social security card a passport and drvers license would be good

Answer 2

Consolidate the money, go to a Chase branch, ask what kinds of accounts they offer, pick the best one and get a statement to prove the initial deposit. That will be the start of a bank account at Chase or any other bank you may choose.

Answer 3

Identification. Money. and the ability to read and write.

Answer 4

Well the short answer is money, but don't put more than $100K in any one account at this time because it's looking like 1929 all over again.  FDIC insures only the first $100K so open a checking or money market account plus a savings account, seperate your money between those two or three accounts in order to be protected against bank failure.

Answer 5

they want a deposit and some ID (usually drivers license...money, it depends on you..sometimes they want $5., sometimes $500.) don't let PayPal dictate your life. You don't REALLY need to be verified or have a PayPal acct at all..you can still use their service.

Answer 6

photo id and 300 dollars.  

The amount is lower if you are just opening a checking account.

Answer 7

photo ID, your current address, cash or checks for depositing your money in your checking .

Answer 8

Answer 9

Answer 11

Generally, you just go into the bank with some money and some ID and talk to an adviser.  They will help you decide the best bank account for you.

Once you have your account open, you can verify your Pay Pal account with it.

Answer 12

Chase usually wants some sort of direct deposit situation set up when they start a new account. They sometimes offer you a $100 if you have a certain intial deposit.

Answer 13

Go to the Chase bank and say, Hi, I am looking to open an account here....They will say ok, come this way, and they will get you started :)

Answer 14

you need to put down a deposit most likely

Answer 15

A FEW DAYS AGO I GOT THE CHASE HIGH SCHOOL CHECKING ACCOUNT FOR THOSE 13-17. IT IS LINKED TO A PARENTS ACCOUNT. MY PACKAGE COMES WITH A VISA CHECK CARD. THERE ARE NO SERVICE FEES. ALL THE RULES APPLY WITH THIS ACCOUNT EXCEPT IF YOU OVERDRAFT IT IS TAKEN FROM YOUR PARENTS. SO BE CAREFUL. IT CONVERTS TO A FREE CHECKING ACCOUNT WHEN YOU TURN 19.
