Is it possible to get a bad credit history from being denied a credit card because you did not have a credit history?
It is possible that you will show a low credit score if you have no other loans, credit cards, etc. You have to have revolving accounts or other accounts to establish credit. If you are having trouble getting a credit card you can try and get a secured credit card, or have a co-signer help sign with a application for credit.
You are a second credit card holder your cousin issued you credit card because you are new in the USA does this give you points or build your credit history the card with your name and your signature?
Not anymore. This year marks the beginning of a new policy for FICO scores regarding authorized users. It will no longer add positive entries to your credit report.
Will it build your credit history if you are not a US citizen but have been regularly using your check card as a credit card?
Citizenship is not a factor here because debit cards used as credit cards is basically delaying the payment for merchandise. Instead of having the money withdrawn immediately (debit), it is delayed a few days and taken out then (credit). Also, you are not borrowing money when using a debit card, whether as debit ot credit, because you're using money you already have.
