Their credit is not reported on yours unless they mess up the checking account itself. If they bounce a check or start getting a lot of NSF's that will be on both of you. But their previous credit cannot affect yours. First, I would like to explain to you the difference between having bad credit, and having a bad report on ChexSystems.
Banks and credit unions usually report people to Chexsystems regarding delinquent bank accounts.
Financial companies and lenders report people to the 3 major credit bureaus regarding delinquent accounts.
So, with that said, having a joint checking account with someone with bad credit does not affect your credit. If that person goes into delinquent status with the checking account and the bank reports him or her to Chexsystems or some other check verification company, then yes your name and social security will be reported as well. Your report will stay on Chexsystems for at least 5 years, unless you have it removed by some means.
There are many banks that offer promotions for checking accounts for people with negative markings on their chexsystems report. A free consumer organization called "InfoAviator" has a pretty large list of them at infoaviator.org/finance/checking-accounts/2014/05/28/how-to-open-a-second-chance-checking/

A credit card account comes with a credit card, which can be used to authorize purchases of any value. The checking account does not come with a credit card and is used for issuing checks.
No, a checking account is not correlated to your credit score. The only reason why you have to give your social security # is to prove that you have no outstanding debt with any other banks. ______________________________________ Actually, there is a correlation. Having a checking account doesn't improve your credit score, but you can be accepted or denied an account based on it. If you have bad credit, or no credit, you may be denied from a variety of bank checking accounts. I was told by my lawyer it does improve your credit if you keep your checking account in good standings he said the bank report it monthly to the crdit bureaus thats just what i was told

One advantage of using a checking account is that you can pay only with money you actually have in your account, which can help you avoid overspending and getting into credit card debt.
Having a checking account has no effect on your credit score. Bouncing your checks has a big effect on your credit score.
No credit reports only report debt not assets. Checking and saving account information does not appear on credit reports so will not affect your credit score.
Yes, it can. Banks feel that they are taking a risk on someone who has bad credit. Most lending institutions think that you will write "bad checks" and not be able to pay for them, thus leaving them to charge off the account. If you have bad credit, they think that you can't manage money.

Credit scores have nothing to do with checking accounts. Unless you've had major overdraft issues with a previous checking account you will have no problems opening a new one.
Pay your bills. I don't know that a credit inquiry will lower your credit score. What does affect your credit score is not paying. Even if you pay late, it shows willingness to pay. But as far as someone checking your credit, I don't think that will actually affect your credit score. Pay your bills. I don't know that a credit inquiry will lower your credit score.
