As far as I know, the debt to income ratio for FHA loan is 31/43. If your debt to income ratio is higher than this, then you won't be able to qualify for a FHA loan.

tergirly, what ratio will be accepted by an automated underwriting system is hard to tell at all times, but i think you'll find that 49% is going to be too high.

if you have 800+ credit score, you might be able to squeeze through, but that's highly speculative, truly.
