whats the time period to wait without taking any new inquiries on equifax, because she told me i was on par with what they wanted, just recent inquiries threw my app off..so is it 3 or 6 months? really wish i was more careful and would of done the chase before i did BMO world, would of gotten approved for chase that way
It's "would have" or "would've", not "would of"

Chase Marriott is very stingy, yes, I got denied also as they won't even re-activate my cancelled card within 3 months of cancellation (it's a new credit check anyway)
They tell you to re-apply after 6 months

Instead, apply for Chase Amazon (Free, $20 Amazon.ca credit) if you want the no-FX-fee feature. I did and got approved within few hours
