It's the same way in Canada. If you are a foreigner, even if you have permanent residence, you will have to provide surety for any new credit card. |
This is correct. My wife (Korean, with permanent residency pending and a 2-year work visa) just applied for a credit card in Canada. She was required to put a minimum $1000.00 down. She will get the deposit back after two years. |
You could co-sign her card probably so she doesn't need a deposit. |
I didn't think of that. I guess she could have inquired about it. Oh well. Having to put down a deposit isn't so bad. She has the money to cover it and she'll receive interest on it over the two years, so it's almost as if it's just in a savings account anyway. |
