My question involves collection proceedings in the State of: CA
So this has been covered a few times on here already, but I had some additional questions. Much like a few of us on here, I cosigned on a student loan with Sallie Mae for an ex-girlfriend of mine 5 years ago. At the time, I was thinking that the cosigner release would be my way out, and that she would pay. Of course, she hasn't paid, it has gone delinquent twice, but hasn't negatively affected my credit report yet.
I've been trying to pay this down, in hopes of the cosigner release, until i was told I had to pay both principal and interest. I was just paying interest.
Is there any way as a cosigner, to be only on the hook for the principal? I heard I can ask about this? I know I'm kinda screwed, but hoping there's something that can help in the situation.
Thanks for your time.
