You really should be looking at Good Faith Estimates before you start throwing around legal documents imo. You should be able to get GFEs from multiple lenders and brokers. You really need to look those over carefully if you are serious about purchasing as they will give you a pretty accurate depiction of what the mortgage will be and whether or not you can afford it. Keep in mind that there will be a lot of other expenses that are associated with home ownership that are not part of the mortgage process.

also, you might want to have your utility bills around $200 a month total. this is internet/cable/elec/phone(cell)/water/gas. actually, its probably close to $250-300, depending on service.

also if you really earn 13 000 a year, you will not get a loan even if you have 40k to put down.

I currently work in the mortgage business and this is complete carp.
The company I work for use an automated underwriting system (created by Fannie Mae in accordance with their guidelines) and it is perfectly happy to approve people whose mortgage payment consists of 55% of their monthly income...before taxes and without verification of any assets!
As for credit even mediocre credit scores don't penalise you on the interest rate, though you could be shelling out anything up to 3% (if you have a credit score in the 500s!!) but more likely a fraction of 1% of your loan amount as an up front, one off adjustor.
I don't make the rules for the provider I work for (or Fannie Mae!) but it scares me when I see the system approve some people and situations bearing in mind the myth that credit is so hard to achieve. But the rule with us (and the investors I work with) is if the automated system is happy then we have to approve the loan. I'm glad I wasn't in the business during the subprime era (or was part of a company that did subprime loans) because I'd probably be genuinely frightened by the stuff I'd have seen.

13k in canada is way below the poverty line. A mortgage even on a cheap piece of land will not get you across the border because you are as much of a risk to stay there as a cuban who floats across the gulf of mexico to florida. 7/11 clerks make more than that.
and perfect credit is a myth, if you have a good amount of cash down and a good salary, you can get a loan. (this is in canada mind you)

Forgot about homeowners insurance. In the USA, every bank and credit union must certify each mortgagee has homeowners insurance and if required, flood insurance too. That can be very expensive.
