If you seriously consider it, would highly recommend to start reading Publication 501 AND get a consultation from tax attorney/accountant specializing on non-resident alien cases. This is for your own good to avoid sticker shock if you end up paying 40% of your income in taxes.
Yes, he does. Theoretically it is possible to obtain a credit card via ITIN and some people at HWZ claimed to be able to do so. However no one was able to provide any such recent (last 3 years) case.

I still have my SSN from studying in the US 12 years ago, think it's possible to get a credit card approved with no income and no US activity in those 12 years? 
(Address is no probs cos my 3 sisters decided to marry angmohs and not to come back to MY/SG).

Presume you mean the Citi Prestige. They told me previously the annual fee cannot be waived regardless of spend. I didn't push, because you get 25k miles on renewal ie. about 2c per mile, Priority Pass unlimited, limo transfers, limited Jetquay and a decent concierge. The real kicker though, is the free night for each 4 night hotel stay which for just one stay a year, already pays off the annual fee. Note the stay can be at a $100 a night hotel, or a $1000.

Most hotels are eligible. Key thing is that there must be a breakdown of the hotel charges including taxes as the reimbursement does not cover the latter.

But I guess you could do 4 nights at one property, 4 nights at another, and get 2 nights off.

I have used the SCB Visa Infinite Card for 1 year now. In the first year, the payment of annual fee of S$588.50 (including GST) entitled me to 35k miles. They just charged me for the annual fee this year. Has anyone tried to call and waive off the fees?
In addition, if I do choose to pay the annual fee, am I still entitled to the 35k miles again this year? It's not so explicitly mentioned in the T&C.
Thank you in advance for the info.
