    Depends your our outgoings.
    Just give them a call and go through an AIP.

    Not sure as I don't know your net income or other circumstances.
    Really there's no point in anyone hazarding a guess as obviously it's down to the underwriter anyway, just wait and see.

    If you hadn't passed the affordability at AIP stage you wouldn't have gone to application.
    I can understand why you'd ask, but there is absolutely no point anyone speculating on whether they will agree the application or not
