My wife co-signed for 2 credit cards with her daughter, who has made several late payments. How can she get her name off of these two cards so our credit can be back to normal.






Your only option is to request the removal of your name from the joint account by the primary cardholder, whether that is your wife or your daughter. Some credit card policies request something in writing and it is possible the company may refuse to allow this due to a signed agreement.

Unfortunately when you cosign for someone you have equal responsibility in maintaining the debt and if the debt becomes delinquent it will remain on her report for 7 years.
