What You Need to Open a Bank Account

- Proof of U.S. residential address (e.g., lease agreement, utilit bill, etc.)
- Local U.S. contact number (optional but recommended)
- SSN or ITIN
     - Not always required at account opening, but may be requested later.
     - If you don't have one yet, banks typically accept your passport+visa+I-20/DS-2019 to verify identity
