Credit is not based on your SSN, you don't have to give your SSN to apply for credit, by law. You can register for a TIN or whatever it's called and use that if you like.

The card will just start with a low balance, let it build up and get interest on it, and slowly it will go up.

If you have a company here, just talk to your bank, they can get credit moving for you really quickly, even for Canadians. But yes, you do have to get a TIN #, or whatever it's called, either way.

Being Canadian and your taxes are higher. You won't have to pay the U.S. on your personal income, but you will have to report it.
