Have any of you recently applied for a BofA Alaska personal card (or any other BofA card) while living overseas?

My most recent BofA card (have since been closed) was the Premium Rewards that was approved in 2021 when I was overseas.
When I tried activating the card online, they wanted to send an OTP to my US number which I can't receive; however, all was solved after calling them and correctly answering security questions (they sent an authorization code to my e-mail instead). Is this still the current procedure?

I'm planning to add an AU who will be meeting the minimum spend while he is in the US. For personal cards, does BofA assign the same or different card number for the AU?
