The fastest way to earn URs is via sign-up bonuses from opening new Chase credit cards, like the Chase Sapphire Preferred (review) or the Chase Ink Business Preferred (review). Not every credit card application leads to an instant approval, though. Sometimes, the application may go pending or you may get denied. So what should you do if Chase doesn’t approve your application instantly?
Thankfully, the flow chart below walks you through the steps for just about any scenario involving a Chase credit card application. You will notice from reading the flow chart that there are lots of paths to end up getting approved. But of course, you have to know your 5/24 status and follow Chase’s other application rules. So if your application isn’t instantly approved, there is no need to panic. Review the flow chart and work through your next steps. And if you have to call reconsideration, we have some tips for that too.
Of course, each person’s situation is different. So if after reviewing this flow chart you still have questions, come ask in our Facebook group, where the ToP team and our more than 20,000 members can help and share our own experiences.
