If I’m applying for a credit card and I’m a student what do I put for income?

JP asked:


I’m currently tying to apply for my first credit card. I am a college student and I only have a part-time job. Last year I made about $5,000. What do I put on the application under income? I don’t want it to decrease my likelihood of getting a loan so should i put my parent’s income or my own? (not sure if this matters but i’m still considered a dependent on my mom’s taxes)
