For freedom best is to check their prequalification site. They are very accurate with that.

Chase typically likes to see a year, but they are very recon friendly. I'd get your scores around 700. lowest I would app at is 680, but YMMV

I don't know about the Venture but for the Freedom, a year of credit history is optimum. I got in with them with 11 months of history though but I guess that depends on the person and whether you have a relationship with Chase already or not.

Time may not be your limit here but your overall credit picture may be.

You can certainly apply at any time you like but if your profile doesn't support an approval, then it will have been a waste of time.

They were my second or third card. I would wait until you hit a year, then try the website.
