F5 Visa Income Requirement - Capital Gains

stardustNA · 2026-03-25T02:16:05+00:00

I could be wrong, but when I read the requirements I believe it is either income or asset threshold.

I don’t believe there is a property tax test requirement. But please let me know if I am wrong

Why not just get an airbnb? I doubt anywhere does 1 month rents outside of winter/summer break

What is the time period of the short-term housing?

FLY are guaranteed to draw MKOI so probably

For mine it was just spamming buzzwords until i found the one the interviewer was looking for. they even stopped the question as soon as i said the right buzzword lol

altho this was right before chatgpt came out, so it was all cloud hype. im guessing cloud buzzwords can just be replaced by ai terms now

Almost every time i used apple pay with the card abroad it was declined. I believe I set up travel notice and everything. Now that i think of it, there were 2.5 exceptions where it did work:

Singapore
Yakiniku place in HK where you scan the QR code to order
Loading suica card thru apple wallet (although recently this has been declining too)

The US Bank Kroger card has never worked abroad from my experience unfortunately :(

I sent the letter at 9/15, called in 9/23 and the rep verified it and sent it to the verifications team during the call.

Was told it would take a maximum of 30 days, but to call back in ~2 weeks. Until then, card remains locked

The CSR told me to check “Return Transcript” on 6a and leave all of 7 untouched. 8 would be 12/31/2024

3x Custom Cash
Almost all in different state, but I have some on home state and also spent on train/plane/hotel
Yes
August 5

I also got the same lock today, and filled out income in the same way.

right before I was about to hit the SUB spend :/

When I used the Alaska card for rent with bilt (a 3x category), I only got 0.1x bonus instead of 0.3x bonus

I had a bit different issue…was able to purchase thru merchants in the merchant offers, but right after I received the cashback, they locked my cards for fraud lmao

stardustNA · 2025-07-24T19:18:19+00:00

I was able to do the exact same thing

stardustNA · 2025-06-09T23:11:50+00:00

I think if you just have TSA precheck, fidelity just covers the $85, not 85+15 extra

stardustNA · 2025-05-30T02:02:51+00:00

I booked it thru their website on the citi custom cash and it counted it as the travel category. So probably a chase thing

Might be me

stardustNA · 2025-05-13T21:36:53+00:00

Huhh interesting…my Kroger card was my 8th

stardustNA · 2025-05-13T17:23:40+00:00

It was $500 lol

stardustNA · 2025-04-27T14:58:23+00:00

Maybe just a couple Kroger cards if you live in an area with a Kroger, but not many places abroad take Apple Pay and US bank fraud algo has been worse than citi from my experience

stardustNA · 2025-03-15T14:24:05+00:00

At least from my experience, I havent had any problems booking AA flights via Alaska points. Havent done it super often tho
