<prompt> Human: Im not sure if this topic applies to this subreddit but heres the situation. I signed off as co-signer for my student loan from Sallie Mae. She is delinquent w her payments and I am taking the fall for it. She owes a tremendous amount. I tried going through Sallie Mae but it says the loan has to be under a certain amount. I cannot carry that burden of paying her loan. Any idea how I can go about getting off the hook??  <response>: The only way for you to be off the hook is for the primary borrower to refinance the loan in only their old name. If shes delinquent with her payments, thats pretty unlikely to happen.I cannot carry that burden of paying her loanThats what you agreed to do when you decided to co-sign the loan. You are just as responsible for that debt as the primary borrower.
