If scores were the only deciding factor, then yes. Unfortunately this is not the case.

Do you currently have any other credit cards?
How long have you had them?
AMEX likes to see at least 1 years history with multiple credit cards.

Some of the usual info needed to get a good picture is average age of accounts, # of inqs, utilization and it also helps if you have previous good payment history with them.

I applied. They are asking that I call to speak with a representative. Apparently, they need a business phone number and home address verification. Is this a good sign?

Yes. Home address can be verified through your bank.

Not necessarily. They approved me for the Green card with only 5.5 months history, and I only had 1 card. My income isn't high, either.
At any rate, OP, it sounds like once they verify your employment and address you'll be good to go!
