Discover It Secured - Just received message to update my profile which is 11 months old

[Anonymous]

I opened a Discover It SECURED card in May 2016.

11 months later:

04/14/2017 I received a message on the mobile app to update my profile (Address, Phone, Income, Rent Amount, Assets).

04/17/2017 is my due date.

04/18/2017 is my cut date.

Could this mean they are considering converting me to the unsecured card and they need updated information to make a decision?

Or is this common practice to get yearly (or periodic) updates on income and such?

The reason I am asking is because I was going to call in to see about getting it converted to the unsecured card. But now I am wondering if I should just wait to see if it happens automatically, then try to double dip.

Should I just hold off on calling and see if it automatically updates at 12 months?

What are your thoughts here?

Oh, I didn't see that. I finally found it on page 5 of this sub-forum.

I responded there.
