My wife's boss wants to get into the miles and points game. But she just got turned down for a Citi Plat AA card because she had a bankruptcy 4 years ago. All she has are mostly worthless ( for building a credit rating) department store ccs. Is there a genuine credit building card she can get before that BK drops off her CR years from now? Maybe one where she puts up a cash deposit to cover her charges? Buehler? Anyone?

PM me if that seems better than posting it here.
Wells Fargo has a secured card. Basically she would deposit some money into a special savings account, and they would give her a card with the same limit as what she deposits in the account.
