Applicants for Joint Intent
A common area of confusion when it comes to the joint intent rules, is “who” is an applicant.
Regulation B defines an “applicant” as any person who requests or who has received an extension of credit from a creditor, and includes any person who is or may become contractually liable regarding an extension of credit.
For purposes of…signatures under this section…, the term includes guarantors, sureties, endorsers, and similar parties. To put it simply, an applicant is anyone who is or will be contractually liable but there are some ifs, ands, and buts.

David and his wife Karen have three adult children, four grandchildren (none of whom live at home!) and two cats (of which Dave is allergic … the cats, not the children!). They recently moved to an acreage outside of Lincoln, Nebraska where he gets to play with his tractor.
