I would like to be a co sponsor for a peitition for my Grandfather.

On the first page of the I864A under the "Who may be considered a household member of this form" it states:

"A relative who has the same principal residence as the sponsor and is related to the sponsor as a spouse, adult child, parent or sibling"

Technically, if my understanding is correct I don't fall under any of those categories because I'm the petitioner's grandson, though we both live at the same residence.

Can my grandmother use my income as a joint sponsor in this case?

You would just use the 864 not the 864A.

My Advice is usually based on "Worst Case Scenario" and what is written in the rules/laws/instructions. That is the way I roll... -Protect your Status - file before your I-94 expires.

WARNING: Phrases in this post may sound meaner than they were intended to be. Read the Adjudicator's Field Manual from USCIS

Yes, the above poster is correct.

You as a co-sponsor must file I-864 and meet entire poverty line threshold. Your grandma will also file I-864 from her side.
