Absolutely not. A lease must be executed only between the apartment complex or landlord and tenant -- no one else! Besides, it would not make sense to have a cosigner for a section 8 lease, when the rent is being subsidized by the federal government, guaranteeing that its portion of the rent will be paid on time and the tenant pays an affordable amount which is based on his income. So there would be no need for cosigner. Because of this, it should be noted that the section 8 program does not allow one to have roommates.
