|  You can apply but you better have OTHER SOURCES (alimony, child support, allowance, etc) of income to provide as proof of you having some kind of money to pay, otherwise they will deny you. The only other choise is getting a Secured Credit Card. Where you place money in a bank account and your credit limit is the amount that you put in the bank (you cant use the money in the account though, its basically collateral). If you seek a Secured one get it from a well known bank though like Bank of America. They have a lot of banks and companies that offer them but they tack on huge fees. Like for a $200 card after they apply their various assorted fees your credit limit will be $50. Large reputable banks however may only charge you a $40 annual fee for the card. |
