I am a Canadian Citizen currently in the USA. I dont have a US SS Number, since im not working in the USA.
Is it possible for me to get a Credit Card from an American Bank? If so, what are the requirements, given the fact that i am a non-working canadian citizen in the US?
Thanks in advance for any help!

You may apply for a US card so long as you have a mailing address in the US to which the bank can send the card. You do not need a social security number, nor do you need to be a US citizen.
As for not having a job, it's not a requirement, but it sure would help you gain approval. :)

You might be right but the problem is that nobody will give You the card without SSN because, as I have been told many times, most cards base internally on this number.
Is there any address for a non SSN credit card ?
