Mortgage after pay rise

Hi,
Me and my wife have sold our house and are looking for a new one. We will have a £36K deposit but can only lend enough to buy a house at £175k. I will get a 10k pay rise in Jan and am wondering how long will i have to wait after the pay rise before applying for a mortgage? The house we want is £200k so need a mortgage based on my new wage.
Thanks for any help.
