  2. I have learned some important things as a result of your post. I’d also like to mention that there can be situation that you will apply for a loan and don’t need a co-signer such as a National Student Support Loan. However, if you are getting credit through a traditional banker then you need to be made ready to have a co-signer ready to assist you to. The lenders are going to base that decision using a few components but the most important will be your credit score. There are some financial institutions that will as well look at your work history and determine based on this but in most cases it will be based on on your report.
