Welcome to the Bank of California. How may I help you?
(ĶϾ Դϴ. ͵帱?)
I'd like to open an account.
( Ϸ.)
Certainly, I can help you with that. Would you like to have a checking account and a savings account?
(. üŷīƮ ϼ, ̺ īƮ ϼ?)
I'd like to open a checking account.
(üŷīƮ.)
OK, great. Please follow me to my office.
( ƿ. 繫Ƿ .)
First, I will need to see your driver's license or ID.
(켱 ̳ ź ּ.)
I am a student from another country, so I don't have a driver's license or ID, but I have my passport and I-20.
( л̶ ̳ ź . ̶ I-20Ծ.)
Yes, that's fine. Please let me have them. Next, I would like to see some proof that the address on these documents is really where you live. Do you have a piece of mail from this address with your name on it?
(, . ּ. ִ ּҸ ִ Ź ʿѵ, ̸ ?)
I got mail from T-Mobile. Does this work?
(Ƽ ִµ, ̰͵ dz?)
That will work fine. Thank you.
(, մϴ.)
Do I have to pay money to start the account?
( Ҷ ־ ϳ?)
Yes, you should deposit $50 into the checking.
(, Ҷ üŷīƮ 50 Աϼžߵſ.)
OK. Here you are.
(. .)
Would you like to have a check card?
(üũī嵵 ǰǰ?)
Yes, sure.

Great, we have several options of pictures, or if you want, you can choose your own photo. Also, you can choose your own style of checks. Here are the options you have.
(ƿ. ī ֱ, Ͻø ־ DZ. Ͻô Ÿϴ Ͻø ſ. ú帱Կ.)
I'll have this one.
(̰ɷ ҰԿ.)
You must keep at least $100 in your checking to prevent having to pay a maintenance fee per month. The fee is only about $13 per month.
( ȳ ϱ ؼ ּ ¿ 100 ̻ ϼžߵſ. ° Ѵ 13Դϴ.)
I see.

I will fill out most of this form for you. I will give you a chance to review the forms in just a moment. Please review the forms and sign them when you agree.
( ʿ ߾. ´ Ȯغð ּ)
Great. Everything is in order. Your first box of checks is free. Each checkbook comes with 30 checks, and each box has about 5 checkbooks. You can expect to receive your card and your checks about two weeks from now. Meanwhile, we will give you these free temporary check card.

Thank you.
(մϴ.)
Is this your first checking account?
( ó Ѱǰ?)
Yes.

I will help you learn about how to write checks. OK?
( ǥ ϴ 帱Կ. ok?)
