Welcome to TreasuryDirect.
This video will show you how to establish an account.
You can use the pause button if you need time to notate
any information.
The first step is to determine the type of account you would like to open.
In this example, it will be an Individual Account
which is already preselected.
Then scroll down and click the Submit button.
On the Individual Account application page,
you must provide all the information in the required fields.
Once you've provided the information, scroll down
and check the box to certify your Taxpayer
Identification Number information.
Then click submit.
On the review page,
verify that all the information is correct and click Submit.
You will then select an image and enter
a caption to be associated with your account.
When completed, click submit.
Next, you will need to enter a password, a password reminder
and three security questions and provide
answers to them.
Once completed, click submit.
That's it.
You established an individual account with the US Treasury.
