When the statement closes AMEX will report the new balance and it should show up in your credit report soon after that. BUT, you can call AMEX and ask them to fax you a "current statement balance" (which should be zero now or close to zero...as you say you just paid off the 40k). You can then send that to Barclays and they may be able to approve you. Cheers.
