Citi does not care how many inquiries you have in the past year. Citi does care how many inquiries you have in the past 6 months (but only those inquiries they see on whichever bureau they pull).
So a metric like total inquiries (across 3 bureaus?) in a year is not relevant to applying for Citi cards.
