From Experian's web site: "Some states now require that a credit report be created if none exists in order to add a credit freeze. For those states Experian will create the report and add the freeze at the parent’s request upon receiving the required documentation."
Regarding NY State (because I happen to reside there), per Experian's web site again:
"In addition, a protected consumer according to New York state law is a consumer under 16 years of age at the time of the request.
To request a security freeze for a protected consumer in your care, submit all of the above information for both you and the protected consumer.
Please include a copy of the minor's birth certificate and a copy of the minor's Social Security card. Once we have received your request and all of the required information for both you and the minor, a freeze will be placed on the minor's credit file. If a credit file for the minor does not currently exist, a file for the minor will be created. Experian does not knowingly maintain credit information on minors. If you are the minor's guardian, be sure to include a copy of the operator's license, court document naming you as the guardian or other appropriate court appointed documents. "
Emphasis mine on the above quotes. A google search on the topic will yield lots of results, but it does appear to matter what state you reside in how the process would be handled, especially with regards to minors with no credit file.
