The Uniform Transfers to Minors Act (UTMA) does not specify a specific age for vesting. It allows assets to be held in a custodial account for the minor until they reach the age of majority, typically 18 or 21, depending on the state. At that point, the assets are transferred to the minor's control.
Vesting age pension plans are retirement savings accounts where the plan participant must reach a certain age before they can access the funds without penalty. This age is known as the vesting age, and it is typically set by the plan administrator. Once the participant reaches the vesting age, they can start receiving retirement income from the plan.
If the account was created before September 1, 1995 the age is 18 under grandfathered UGMA law. If the account was created AFTER September 1, 1995, the age of termination is 21. http:/www.finaid.org/savings/ageofmajority.phtml http:/www.fairmark.com/custacct/index.htm See above links for further info.

18 Depending on your state, if the account is a UTMA/UGMA (Uniform Transfers to Minor/Uniform Gifts to Minor), the minor may not be able to withdraw money until s/he reaches 21.
Vesting is "immediate" but until the age of majority in the state (often 18, sometimes 21), ownership usually is held for the minor in the name of a "guardian" pursuant to a "guardianship" or similar trust-type arrangement that the state probate laws require. Usually a surviving parent would be the guardian but it could be the executor (sometimes an attorney, sometimes a bank).... If the will establishes a testamentary trust (a trust that starts up at the death of the testator), then ownership is held by the trustee appointed in the will and vesting will be per the terms of the trust established in the will.
The minimum age to have your own account is 18. However, if you are under 18, a parent or legal guardian can open an account for your benefit under what is called the "Uniform Transfers to Minors Act" (UTMA). The parents/guardians legally controls the account, but they are legally required to use the money for the benefit of the minor. Once you reach 18, the account becomes yours alone.

When you have kids, you inevitably get little monetary gifts for them from time to time. Holidays, birthdays and special occasions usually see a child receiving a handful of $10 and $25 gifts. While the first instinct may be to put that money in a piggy bank or bank account, there is another option that's worth checking out a Uniform Gift to Minor account. The Uniform Gift to Minor Account (UGMA) is a trust-like account type that an adult like a parent or grandparent can open on behalf of a minor child. The guardian takes custody of the account's assets and transacts on the account until the child reaches adult age (usually 18 or 21 depending on the state). At that time, the account becomes the property of the child and they can do with it as they wish. Some states require the Uniform Transfer to Minor Account (UTMA) in lieu of the UGMA but they operate very similarly. The UGMA carries several benefits to the accountholder. First, the custodian maintains control of the account until the minor comes of age. That helps provide some degree of comfort that your son won't go blow the entire account balance on a new car on his 16th birthday. Second, income earned on the account gets taxed at the child's tax rate instead of the parent's. The child's rate is almost always lower than the parent's rate so this account would allow you to keep a little more of it out of Uncle Sam's hands. Third, you can also invest just about any security in a UGMA/UTMA account. That includes stocks, bonds and mutual funds. Most brokerages and investment firms offer the UGMA/UTMA account. On most account applications, there is a registration option that allows you to establish this account. You simply need the typical identification information (address, child's birth date, etc.) along with the child's social security number to establish the account.
