Congrats. Good question. Doesnt hurt to call and ask and they may push the date out. Tell them you didnt think you'd get approved. Might work.

Yes if it expires you do have to reapply to the card. I know this because they sent me letters about it when i was approved for the same thing. I would call them and see if there is anything they can do about it.

I know this is old but in case someone else finds this thread and needs the info:

You don't have to fund right away. They send the approval via email with a link to fund within 14 days

Re: Approved for Citi Secured

 Is it true you can never increase your security deposit above what you initially open with ?

No you cannot increase the deposit amount afterwards
