What else can I help you with?

The cosigner's credit isn't affected one ioto unless the person who was responsible for the loan payments defaulted, then and if the cosigner also defaulted. In other words, just being a cosigner does not affect ones credit ratings.

If you were to cosign for a rental agreement how will your credit be affected and how does one get removed as cosigner?
The way it may impact on the credit report depends on if the person pays the rent as agreed. It will also play a part in the cosigner's DTI. Usually the only way of being removed as a cosigner is if the agreement is reaffirmed by the primary holder and the lender. In the instance of rental agreements, a cosigner can sometimes be relieved of obligation if there is a breach of contract. For example, if the person moves someone not on the original rental contract into the apartment.
Is a cosigner responsible to pay a credit card debt if the credit card limits are increased from what was originally cosigned?
The creditor would likely claim the cosigner is still responsible, but unless it is in the original agreement that such increases are part of the contract the cosigner could make a case for being relieved of the responsibility or only being responsible for the origninally quoted amount.
If the co-signer do not have enough credit after being the co-signer half year for a car loan because of the co-singer lose the job What will happen to the co-signer?
AnswerIf you have already been the cosigner on the loan, you will remain so until the loan is refinanced or paid in full. It doesn't matter if the cosigner has lost their job or not. As long as the person is making their payments, the cosigner isn't affected at all.Good luck job hunting cosigner! :)

How does being a cosigner affect your debt-to-income ratio?
Being a cosigner can increase your debt-to-income ratio because the debt you cosign for is considered your responsibility, even if you are not the primary borrower. This can impact your ability to qualify for loans or credit in the future.
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.
What does it mean to cosign on a car loan and what are the responsibilities and implications of being a cosigner?
Cosigning on a car loan means agreeing to be responsible for the loan if the primary borrower fails to make payments. As a cosigner, you are equally liable for the loan, and your credit score could be affected if payments are missed. It's important to understand the risks and responsibilities before agreeing to cosign on a loan.
Should a co signer be told if something they signed for is getting repoed?
