Frequently Asked Question #16
   

What is the effect of bankruptcy on co-signers?

If someone has co-signed a loan with you and you file for bankruptcy, the co-signer will still have to pay the debt. You should list the co-signer as a creditor in your bankruptcy petition since they may have a contingent claim against you.
