I want to open a regular savings account, or something similar or even better for my one month old son. What documents or things would I need?

social security number and birth certificate
i did that for all 3 of my daughters when they were babies
it's a minors account and you are the trustee
thay cannot withdraw without your signature until they are 18 or 21 depends on how its set up

hello
let me try to answer this...i am part of banking and most of the rules are common.
Infant account is only possible after he completes a year in my country rules might be diff in your country for the age limit.
you have to feel in the form just as any account and you shall be gaurdian for the account till the minors account becomes major account. you will require resd proof for the account and photograph of the baby.

savings bonds! you can purchase them online. for as low as $25 maybe lower. learn about them and you'll see it's much better for a return than a low interest savings account.
get them at your bank or on a federal website. (google it)
i just encountered this very thing 3 days ago for my newborn.

at my bank, all i needed was an account at the bank, and my childs social security number. most might ask for a birth certificate. call you bank ahead of time and ask them, i am sure it wont be anything that you dont already have.

Well working at a Bank, you would need your son's SS# and birth certificate, your SS# and some ID for yourself. I think it is a good idea what your doing.

Just his social security number and a copy of his birth certificate.

your son's birth certificate, your driver's license, and second photo I.D. (or two forms of I.D.)
It will be an UGTMA account (Uniform Gift To Minors Act)

Get saving bonds. I believe you have to get him a social security number.

you will need identification for yourself....like a drivers license, credit card, birth certificate...and also bubs birth certificate...you can open the account in bubs name with you as the guardian......

I just did this - you'll need his ss# if you have it, you'll need his birth certificate, but you'll have to be on the account too.
