[If a guarantor co-signs a student loan,
they are fully liable for the debt.
If the borrower defaults,
the guarantor's assets - including bank accounts and property -
are subject to seizure, and they can be sued.
Federal Loans: The U.S. Department of Education can garnish,
or "offset," Social Security benefits (up to 15%)
if the federal loan goes into default, notes the CFPB (.gov).
Private student loan companies are not allowed to garnish
your Social Security check.
But a lender could take you to court for loans you have co-signed
if the primary borrower doesn’t pay them.]
