No way for us to know. It's not just a matter of your existing limits. You entire credit profile and income will determine the limits that you qualify for with any creditor.

Your credit profile and income will determine your internal limit. Every creditor is only going to be willing to extend a certain amount to a given credit profile. We don't know such specifics for any creditor. We can try to use aggregated anecdotal evidence but there are pitfalls in doing so.

As stated above, it's the 5/24 thing. You'll have to wait to apply until you're out of it. While there isn't a sticky it is a very common discussion topic so don't overlook existing threads as resources.
Will go through the other threads. Thanks for the info!

I've opened over the past 2 years:
AMEX platinum
AMEX Costco
Citi simplicity
Bestbuy MasterCard
Just had to get AMEX green card I believe from my employer
I bought a truck in November
Credit score 740-750, definitely a few inquiries nothing insane though
I have a mortgage that would also show from within last 2 years, divorced but my name hasn't come off of it yet.
Yet another victim of 5/24. If only that sticky request post was actually listened to.
Sorry, evidently I missed this.....I'll look for whatever post you are referring to.
No reason to be sorry. Almost two months ago, I asked for a sticky post because there were several people a week doing exactly this. Applying for a card they had zero chance of getting due to the 5/24 rule. It fell on deaf ears.
Just read it. I don't think that I have more than 5 cards that have been opened within that timeframe. Unless the Green Card is already reporting as opened....
When was the last time you checked Credit Karma? If you pull it now, you'll know your whole story.
Could you elaborate on what you mean? I just signed in but can't locate an area that says specifically "recently opened accounts"....
Sure, just open your EQ report and check accounts. There is an option to sort accounts by open date. If you have 5 accounts with open dates in the last 2 years, you are disqualified from the CSP, Freedom, and Slate.

Found it. I completely forgot I got a Chase UEMP card 🙈
So since February 2015 I've opened 5 total. I suppose that means I have to wait until February 2017 before I can get CSP and can't get any new cards between now and then?
Correct. As of Monday. That's only a year.
