Questions people ask

Can immigrants get a credit card in the US?

Yes. With an SSN you can apply for most starter and secured cards. With an ITIN the choice is smaller: Capital One accepts an ITIN on several cards, including its secured card. With only a passport, cards are rare.

What is the easiest first credit card with no credit history?

Usually a secured card. You put down a refundable deposit, the bank gives you a credit line, and your payments go to the credit bureaus. Compare the deposit, the annual fee and whether the card can move to a regular card later.
