FTB Scared

Hi, me and my partner are about to find out if we can get a mortgage, we have a 10% deposit for an house...

But im scared of them turning me down, a couple of years ago i missed a few payments on my credit card. Its all paid off now, im scared it will come back to haunt me...

Will this be the case??

    Erm be more specific?

    If less than 6 years, this will definitely comeback to you when they carry out a full credit check. The final decision will then go to another hierachy who may ask for additional information but they will give the yes or no.

    But quietly rightly they will see this as a bad thing.
