droz15 0 Posted May 13, 2014 Hello everyone im new to this but it seems like a helpful way to get some questions answered. I applied a while back to the credit card from wells fargo for cellege students but I got denied because I wasnt a permanent resident thats what they told me. I recently got a invitation letter from discover it for college credit card but I dont know if I should give them my ssc number or not because Im afraid theyll just denied it for the same reason. Also do I need to put a nimber where it asks u about hpw much u spend in ousehold or can I leave it blank. Can I use my itin number Instead of my ssn? What are other banks I can apply to if anyone knows Thanks guys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gperez562 4 Posted May 15, 2014 They will deny you since your new ssn doesn't have any recent credit. You are better off applying for the credit card that ask for a down payment. They can start you at 200 too 500 and if you make every monthly payment and finish your balance they can grand you a normal credit card. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tori 38 Posted May 15, 2014 Dump Wells Fargo and go with Bank of America. In 2011 I got a checking account with them, no questions asked about my SSN or Mexican consulate ID. In 2013 after approved for DACA I opened a college credit card with B of A and updated my SSN. Greatest thing: I'm not even a student, the fellow hooked me up! No interest for a year and $1,000 credit line! 2 Solid and droz15 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
