What do I need to start a checking account at my local Bank of America?

Will I need more than one form of ID?

You actually need 2 forms of ID and proof of your mailing address. A drivers license, state ID or passport will work as your primary and a social security card, school ID, work ID, credit or debit card will work as your secondary ID. Anything outside of that, call your local branch to ask about and they can give you more specific answers about alternate secondary IDs if it needs to be researched. If your address on your primary ID matches your current address then you won't need to bring any address verification. If you don't have proof of mailing address because your in school or at a temporary address for another reason, ask the local branch as well because they may not need it. I work right down the road from a major university and we make exceptions on address verification because so many students have a permanent and a temporary address. Hope this helps.
Reply:Just your dr. lic. and a bill showing your address.


If you don't have a bill under your name, your parents bill would work.
