You cannot get a bank account in ONLY your name either.

Since you are under 18, you will need to go to the bank with your parents.





You will receive a debit card with your name on it that you can use for all your purchases.


At 17, you should be learning about checking accounts|||If you're in the US, you must 18. There's no way around it; the law has changed. If you apply, you will be denied. Once you're 18, get a cosigner (parent).
