So I'm planning on asking my brother to add me to his CSP card as an AU mainly for AAoA purposes. Will his UTL affect me? whether its high or low? or is it just him cause its under his name?
His actual util will not spill over to you, what will happen is the card will report with the balance and the CL, it will affect your util as the balance and the CL will go into your calculations.
The util on that card will be included in your util. If his balance is highm it will reflect on your CR's.
If he hasn't had the cc longer than your oldest TL it will not help your AAOA

Always consider whether this will be a good benefit in the long run, besides just the AAoA. If his CSP is usually maxed or over 30% utilized most of the time, then something to think about.
