$342 used out of $4,000 on google
$0 used (paid balances off already) out of $7,200 Care credit.

So from 1st post, the edit is total credit limit is at $11.2k

Re: Chase Sapphire Reserve Application!

Based on what you shared above, it appears that you currently do not have any major bank cards V/MC/D/AX, in your profile, correct?

If not, it's definitely going to pose a bit of a challenge for getting CSR to go through since the minimum SL is $10K. Although anything is always possible, I'd be very curious to see how this pans out given your DPs.

Yeah that's correct. Also, never been an authorized user on major credit cards.

This was definitely a reach, since I travel for my job, was reaching to get approved.

Will keep this post updated.

CSR has a minimum credit line of 10k, so it's a reasonable question to ask about individual CL. 

 

I hope you get an approval but with both of your cards being considered "store" cards, it's really hard to tell. 

 

Do not call them again, you already talked to a person. An actual person will only be able to recite back same thing that robolady tells you.

Your CS numbers are certainly where they need to be, the rest of your file is a little thinner than some I have seen.
Saying that I've also seen some thicker files with lower CS numbers get approved.
It's going to depend on if the UW's think you are a solid for the 10k SL
Anything is possible these days, so I wish you nothing but good luck.

Re: Chase Sapphire Reserve Application!

 

A Chase robolady 30 day message means that they haven't yet processed the application.  At this stage there is nothing to be gained in speaking with a CSR. 

 

Your next step is to keep calling the robolady daily to check if status has changed to 14 days, approval, or 7-10 days.  If the status changes to 7-10 days, and only if there is a status change to 7-10 days, you then want to talk to a CSR as they either need verification or you need to recon.  A 14 day message means the application has been processed but the decision has not yet been finalized, so like a 30 day message there is no value in speaking with a CSR.

Definitely intrigued by this. OP has a relatively thin file but good scores. I wonder...

Really tough call.

I would have suggested applying for CSP to maximize approval chances, then a year later upgrade to CSR if credit line allows.
