Hard Inq's initiated by you re: credit app, cli, etc stay on your reports for 2 years.
AR's (account reviews - which are done every month or 2 by most cc issuers, Citi, Amex, etc, etc) stay on also, but don't count against your Shown Inq's to other potential lenders.
Even know Hards stay on 2 yrs. Most companies don't much care about those ones that are already 9-12 months old or older.
If you need to go on a line - app spree for new lines, etc and your fico (not faco) scores are good, do a couple of Citi apps or Amex apps on the same day. Usually you will only get 1 inq. for more then 1 app from certain companies.
thanks
