How borrowing works locally

Payment history is reported to credit agencies, and that record is what builds or damages a credit file over time.

Adding a co-signer puts a second file in front of the lender and adds a second person to the obligation. An application usually asks for identification, income evidence, banking details and a statement of obligations.
