this isn't about opening a checking account, it's about a credit card. you CAN'T get one if there's no steady income hitting the account.
and that's just a debit card linked to your checking... used for pulling cash from ATMs.
Lonicera, did you even read what I wrote. Like I said, at Goldman Sachs you can open a credit card regardless of whether you have regular income or not. I opened one myself, and I don't have any regular income here in the States because I work abroad and my money comes from overseas. They actually suggested I get a Mastercard charge card. It’s a credit card with a one-month payment delay and zero interest. You can buy anything online with it just like a Mastercard revolving card, no real difference... I've used it countless times for online shopping. When I asked about an American Express card, they told me since I have savings with them, I could apply and it shouldn't be an issue, but in the end, I just went with the Mastercard credit card.
I just have one question... do you happen to have a security deposit on file at Bank of America or something... or maybe you have your salary deposited into a foreign currency account... because it strikes me as truly bizarre that they would grant you a credit card without any kind of guarantee that you'll actually pay it back... 😕
