After your cc reports when to use?

When u pay off your cc and the new statement cuts on your account, like when the statement closes can i use my card then for the month or do i still need to wait until they update and it shows up on myfico? Im confused because it seems that i dont get an update on myfico for at least a few days after my statement changes. Say it closes on the 7th myfico wont show on some carde until the 11th.

Re: After your cc reports when to use?

MyFICO updates 7-10 days after your CR's are updated. If your question is regarding the 'float ' period; after your statement cuts.

My question is say i pay in full i want my report to show zero on this card, when can i start to use this card so it stays zero. I'm confused because i can see when the next cycle starts on my account but i dont want to start using the cards to ealry. Can i start using the card the very next day when the new statement starts even if it doesn't catch up yet on Myfico?

Yes you can use your card after the statement cuts ( for the coming month) and it will not show up on your report

Re: After your cc reports when to use?

You can use your card AFTER your statement cuts. The alerts you get from myFICO will occur 7-10 days AFTER your CRs update and that's contingent upon the preferences you've selected ie bal alerts.

Re: After your cc reports when to use?

Great thanks everyone for clarifying this. I was waiting to long to start using my cards, about a week longer than i should have.
