You do not need a certificate of deposit (also known as a CD) to deposit money into an account - unless you are attempting to deposit money into a CD account. Most banks only require you to have a regular savings account opened to be able to deposit money into a checking account for free. However, these terms vary by bank depending on which one you are using. Generally speaking, however, you should not have to open a CD to deposit funds into a regular checking account.

When there is a credit balance on a bank statement it means?

It means that you have money in your bank account that can be withdrawn whenever you need. A credit balance indicates that there is money in your account whereas a Debit balance indicates that you owe money to the bank. You can withdraw as much money as you have in your account anytime you want if the account is a saving or checking account. If it is a Time Deposit, you may have to wait until the deposit matures or incur the penalty for premature closure.
