COOGAN ACCOUNTS
According to California State Law, all parents whose children work
in the entertainment industry are required to open a Coogan account.
It is mandatory that parents put 15% or their child’s gross
earnings into this bank account where it will essentially be the
separate property of the child rather than that of the parents.
Parents cannot touch the money without a court order or until the
child is eighteen. This law was passed in 2000 as a result of Jackie
Coogan and other prior child stars whose parents had unlawfully
spent all of their earnings.
Ask your bank about setting up a Coogan account. It is usually
easier to do this before your child's work date.
For more information about Coogan accounts,
click here.
If you would like your business or link added, write us at Nancy
Hayes Casting.
