Wife and I are both at exactly 5/24. One of my 5 is an AU on an Amex card I've never used. Two of her 5 are AU's on my Chase cards.
For Chase cards, I'm currently the primary on CSP and Freedom, and she has a SW Chase card. If I apply, I'll certainly get denied or pending at best, and will have to call recon. If she applies, the same will likely happen. However neither of us will probably get a decision until after the 100k bonus promo is over, and then the other won't be able to get it if the app is ultimately denied.
Question is: with those above factors in mind, does she stand a better chance of ultimately getting approved than I (taking into account she has fewer Chase cards than I, and more of her 5/24 are AU's,) or is it just a crap shoot since we're both at 5/24?
