Eligible children must meet these requirements:
- Must be 17 or younger at the end of 2026.
- Must have a valid SSN (not an ITIN or ATIN) at the point of signing up for the account. A valid SSN is one that is valid for employment. If the child was a U.S. citizen when he or she received the SSN, the SSN is valid for employment. If "Valid for Work Only with DHS Authorization" is printed on the SSN card, the SSN is valid only as long as the DH authorization is valid.
- Must not already have a Trump Investment Account set up for them.
Please note that the initial $1,000 contribution to these accounts offered by the government is only available for children who meet
additional requirements.
If you have a child who isn't included on your 2025 tax return, but otherwise qualifies and you want to set up a
Trump Investment Account for them, you'll need to sign up online at
trumpaccounts.gov instead of with your tax return. This option will be available summer 2026.
Please note, you can't sign up a child for one of these accounts on an amended return.
