    <title>topic Approval Question in Mortgage Loans</title>
    <link>https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Mortgage-Loans/Approval-Question/m-p/528793#M47554</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;Mu husband and I just applied for our mortgage and I have been driving myself crazy wondering if we will qualify. I think I have done every calculation possible. So I was wondering what some other people will think, we have kind of strange circumstances.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Our credit scores are:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Husbands: 734, 719, 672&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Mine: 726, 691, 691&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;We have no late payments on it whatsoever&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;As of right now we make about 54000/yr&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;however... BEFORE the closing date (which we have now as August 6) my husband is getting a $10,000/yr raise... he's in a union and gets this big of a raise every year for the next 5 years. We have all of the paperwork saying he's getting it, just not a pay stub showing it yet. (He gets the raise July 29th)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;We have about $100/month in credit card debt, and a car payment that is $70/month. Thats all the debt we have NOW.. but...&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;...I just graduated from school in May, so all of my student loans are deferred until about January. I'm not positive what the payments will be.. I have around $30,000 in student loans, I called and they said come January, my payments will be about $300... but I have nothing to verify this. (mind you, we won't be paying for this until AFTER my husband's raise)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;We have $15,000 as a downpayment, most of which is a gift from my grandfather.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I also work in HR at the bank that we are applying with.. I don't know if that will make a difference or not.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Anyway, the house we are looking at is $150,000... so the loan amount would be for $135000&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;So what do you think?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I think you should apply.....&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;you can probably get this deal done&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
