Relative pronoun or?

Hi everyone.
Is there any mistake with the text here:

I have just applied a loan, which I have to wait until 10 days after the deadline only I know if it is approved or not.

I used "which" in this sentence and I am wondering if this sentence is a relative pronoun.
  

Top answer

I have just applied for a loan, for which I have to wait 10 days after the deadline to find out if it is approved or not. That is not the slickest way to say that, but at least the grammar is now OK. You should use this: I have just applied for a loan, but I have to wait 10 days past the deadline for approval.

  • I have just applied for a loan, for which I have to wait 10 days after the deadline to find out if it is approved or not.
