Thank you so much for the kind words and response.
It does make a lot of sense to spread the apps over time, I was just unsure what is perffered as I saw a lot of people around here going on sprees and applying for 5+ new accounts at once.
Do you think 6Months should be enough? I plan on letting only the DC report very low (10$ish) to stick with the formula suggested here on the forums a lot.
When would be a good time to try the Discover IT CLI SP button? does it block if I try every month or two?
Yes.. 6 month is good. Chase likes to see some history. So use the cards you have currently and pay them ALWAYS on time. Come the 6 month time, go to the Chase pre-equal site and see if you are pre-approved. Pre- approvals from Chase is very solid. In addition to you wanting a Chase, put Amex on the list as you can get a bigger limit quicker. Big limits beget big limits from other companies.
If you see people here going on "app sprees", don't mimick them as it isn't the best for everyone. For a thin file like yours, abstain from it and let your cards age and get decent prime cards with better limits.
Letting the DC report is a good plan. But don't be afraid to use the other cards. If you want the best, let DC report the $10 and then pay the others off if you use them before statement cuts.
How long have you had the Discover card?
