Max age for a parent to cosign for a card

dabossman · ‎07-16-2014

So what is the max age a person can be and still have a parent cosign for a card with them, I have good credit, 740's accross the board, ex might be 739 now due to a stupid waste of a hard pull, but the issue is my low income since i'm still a student. I'm 22 is that too old to have a parent cosign with me for a US bank cash plus

AFAIK, anyone can cosign at any age, doesn't have to be a parent. Lots of people with poorish credit need a cosigner for cards and loans.

Yep. The issue is finding a bank that will do joint credit card accounts. Most of the big one's don't, as I recall.
