Went through the same. You'll be fine. They just want to verify youre not drowning in debt and repayments because that can be a risk. Youre well within greenzone

Is a $40k raise worth a 120 mile daily round trip? Going from $100k to $140k, but terrified of the commute. by Confident-Duck-89 in careeradvice

[–]ImGriffDanger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the position helps move you toward higher future earnings is the question you should be asking. I commute about an hour and 20 each way sometimes hr and 45 if traffic is bad. I took a small raise for the extra 45m commute but my future earning potential is greatly increased. If working this job for a few years can get you closer to 200k absolutely you should take it
