Apply credit card for retirement person?
My mom is retired. Can I apply a credit card for her? and can I use my income on her credit card application? my mom also receives SSI benefit. Is it ok if she applies a credit card?

Surely she has some kind of income? Some sort of pension, savings interest or benefits? If she doesn't have any of these should put 0$ but no one is going to give her a credit card with no income.

She used her SSI and other investment income as the income and has no issues getting a several cards.
She's has enough points now to fly F one way and J back.
