We are mid-mortgage application and are needing to purchase an item ASAP!! However the mortgage being held until our current product runs out end of July. Will it effect the mortgage if we get the store credit ?

    Possibly.

    No new credit between application and completion!

    It will not help in anyway and even if there is only a 1% chance it might harm, why risk it?
