Amex 4056t help!!!

[Anonymous]

Long story short .. applayed for the delta gold card and the green charge amex both are business cards . My file is thin and I really wanted those cards , my Father have’em in his wallet . He also have 4 different amex cards personal and corporate. Ok but after i did the app.. the status pop up to canceled . After I called the rep.. he told me that they need the 4056t form and i can uploaded online and send it . After i did that i went to the amex web upload site and paste my reff number and all my info a messegage came up that they dont need any further info from me ? So what i should do , wait or call them back?

Did you complete the 4506-T online?  If not, I'd call to check the status and see if they still need it from you.

It means they've received the paperwork. How long it takes will depend on if it's gonna be an auto or manual review.

Hello, so_broke_it_hur thx for the reply. Ok how come they received my documents when I didn’t. Send anything yet ? I’m trying to log in to send those paper work...ughhh 😕

Oh, sorry, I misread. I thought you had said you uploaded the form and then was trying to check the status again. All you can do is call them.

Update .... I just called amex again and wanted to verify if they still need anything from me . Crs said they dont need anything for now , I have to wait for them to call me or receive anything in the mail. I’ve asked if she knows if I need to send the 4056t form so I dont have to wait the mail this way I can expidite the process , but she said no just wait and be patient ...it’s easy for her to say that....lol😁

Off topic, but just as a PSA:  this generally isn't a great way to choose cards!  Presumably your father has a different credit record and credit needs from you, what works for him may not be a good match for you.    And, depending how credit savvy he is, he could have got those cards as a sort of default choice, and there may be better choices for him as well.

But good luck with resolving the app anyway!

Yeap thank you longtimelurker for the advice you gave me , I’ll keep in mind . Of course I can’t and I don’t want to compare my dad credit file , bit the whole situation is that I’m working in his company and we spend a lot of money on his amex’s cards and I was thinking if I could get one of those cards I will be able to use’em for the business and on the same side to build some credit on my own .
