Basically the identification requisition can be treated as "OPTIONAL"
They won't need the personal information when you request for an AU card, but when you activate the AU card, they will ask you to provide some type of personal info (SSN, or DL, or passport, etc.)

This really sucks. I just don't understand why AmEx needs to ask for it. The process of adding AU is much easier for Chase or Citi cards.
