create apple id issue

I'm trying to setup an Apple ID on an old MacBook Air to give to my son. I can't get past the account create/verification screen. I put in his phone number for the verification code and that's as far as I can get.. the error: Your account cannot be created at this time. My son hasn't had an apple device in years..

How can i get past this issue
