Yes, that is the main purpose of having a cosigner. The person is accepting equal resposibility for repayment of the debt if the primary borrower should default. Therefore a cosigner needs to the have acceptable financial status as required by the lender.

If cosigner has a car loan already may she cosign for someone and be approved for that person and the cosigner has good credit?
Yes.
What credit card companies will allow you to apply with a co-signer?
If the cosigner has a good credit rating any credit card company would be more than happy to let them cosign. All credit card companies are interested in is getting their money back. The cosigner should always be as sure as possible that the person they are cosigning for is reliable and will pay back any outstanding balance because if they don't the cosigner is 100% responsible in paying that debt back!
What if the cosigner has two car loans and a mortgage can they still cosign?
They could still cosign. It would mainly land on the bank to see if they would approve this person as a cosigner. More then likely they would if they have a mortgage as well as 2 other car loans that are up to date. This person probably has very good credit and all they'd need is a good amount of funds coming in to get approved.
Can a person with bad credit cosign for a car loan?
I don't think so. The reason for a cosign is because the person buying the car has bad credit and the cosigner is a guarantee to the bank the loan will be paid. Two bad credit reports doesn't equal one good one. Since you have credit problems I wouldn't sign because that will add to your debt ratio to income and actually harm your credit.
Can a person with bad credit get a loan with a cosigner with good credit?
Possibly. However, the cosigner needs to understand all the implications should the one needing the cosign on the load default on payments. If the primary borrower doesn't pay the co-signer will be held personally responsible for paying the loan in full. That's what they agree to when they sign as co-signer.

If you can't get a loan and ask someone to cosign can the dealer still say no even if the cosigner has really good credit?
A lender can say no for any reason at all. Usually, though, if you can establish employment and have a good co-signer, a lender will agree.
Does a cosigner need good credit?
A cosigner is only needed because the primary doesn't have adequate credit rating/history for the needed loan. Hence, the cosigner needs to have credit good enough to qualify for the loan, presumably good, at least betterr than the primary! (Credit scores are not combined or added to get to the needed level). Understand, being a cosigner is essentially the exact same as getting a loan - the cosigner is just as liable as if he got the loan on his own..in fact needs to be more responsible, because he now has to take on the obligations of the primary too, if needed, likely without the control/posession/benefit of what was purchased.
Can a bankrupt person cosign a loan I have a good credit score but not enough income. My father makes over 100k a year but got over his head with credit cards. Is he still able to cosign my loan?
Anyone the lender accepts can be a cosigner...that is entirely the lenders choice. However, they naturally want someone more qualified, having a higher credit score, than the primary. Your father likely does not.
Can a spouse with good credit cosign a student loan for their spouse with bad credit?

Can a cosigner help your credit?
from what i know when you sign on a cosigner you hand your item to them so if you make good payments it builds their credit if you fail to make payments it hurts their credit but it is a good way to start.
