Additional Signer query...

Does it hurt to have list an additional signer during the app process if they have a few baddies?

Thanks!

Yes it can, unless your credit is worse than your co-signer's.

No if it's just AU their credit won't be looked at.

Thanks! The co-signer has longer more established but a few late payments and a few closed cards.

Thanks!

No just an additional user- finally figured out what AU means ha.

Re: Additional Signer query...

How recent are those late payments?

It doesn't matter if the cards are closed, but were they in good standing when they were closed? Or was he/she delinquent on those debt?

How does your co-signer's credit fare compared to yours?

TL = trade line.

If you are just adding AU, then it doesn't matter.
