VA Loan Question

We have been approved for the max VA home loan (417k). Here's my concern/question...
 
I called a total of 3 mortgage companies to first see if I can afford the max loan. Only one place said yes while the others came up with something way less ($250k). Can someone please help explain the discrepancy? Here's our senario:
 
Annual Income: 88k
Auto Loan payments: $1100/mo
Student Loan Payments: $200/mo
No credit cards bills, or other obligations.
Money in bank: $2k
 
If I do my math our debt to income ratio would only be about 51-52% with the existing debt plus our new mortgage payment.
 
Can someone please help?

Re: VA Loan Question

I am in the same position as you.  I am trying to buy a home on VA and my my ratio is short of the home I want.  Is VA lenient on the ratio.  I hope someone answers your two posts because I need the answers also.  I just called the 1-800 VA line and I think everyone else in the US is calling them about it because they said on a recording they couldn't answer now too busy.
