Can I place a security freeze for a minor on my Equifax account?

Asked a year ago
Yes, you can place a security freeze for a minor on your Equifax account. Equifax understands the importance of protecting the identity of minors and offers the option to establish a security freeze to safeguard their personal information. To place a security freeze, you need to provide the necessary identification and documentation as both the parent or legal guardian and the minor are required to complete the process. The security freeze will help prevent unauthorized access to the minor's credit report and ensure their information remains secure. It is recommended to contact Equifax directly for specific instructions and additional information regarding the process of placing a security freeze for a minor on your Equifax account.
