Eleven financial institutions are participating in Bank on Houston initiative across the Greater Houston area. We are dedicated to making sure everyone in Houston has an account with a bank or credit union that works for them.
Now, in Houston:
- You don’t need a Social Security Number or Driver’s License. If you have a passport, government issued identification (Consular ID: Such as a Mexican Matricula and/or Passport) you may be eligible for an account.
- It is recommended the person at interest apply for an IRS individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN). (https://www.irs.gov/forms-pubs/about-form-w-7)
- You should still bring a secondary form of ID, such as a utility bill (Light bill, water bill, etc).
- You can open a checking or savings account without overdraft fees or a minimum deposit via one of our NAS accounts.
- You can join the financial mainstream with the help of Bank On Houston!
