What does your credit profile look like?  Any baddies?  Scores?  Number of inquries?  How recent are your inquiries?

A ton of inquiries over the last year during my rebuild.  No baddies.  Scores are in the 670 range.

Try 6 months and app for both. If declined, another 6 months and app.

Minimum 6mos for Citi from last app with all those inquiries.
