When to order FICO scores

[KimPossible]

I've had some good luck removing items from my reports. Two of the three have returned updated reports with all items removed. 

 

My only credit card is near it's limit because I've had to rent a cars a few times last month but after my expense check comes in that will be paid down to below 15% next week. My payment due date is the 25th but I'll paying in advance. 

 

After I hear back from the last bureau how long should I wait to order my scores? Will Capital One wait to report the payment on the 25th? I'm assuming if all three reports come back clear that's immediately updated?

 

FICO scores are expensive so I don't want to do it too soon.

@KimPossible - it's hard to say when the reporting bank will update their info.  It could be as long as 30 days.

Thanks, I'll just sit tight then. I'll wait 45 days after my due date with Capital One. I know that card being near it's limit will bring the score down.
