Sorry, but no. You cannot add someone to an existing mortgage. The only way to do that is to refinance. And he would have to qualify. FHA does allow for a non-occupant borrower. This is common in situations like you are describing. Essentially, you would act as a co-signer. The lender looks at both of your Credit, Income and expenses, in the same way they would look at the credit, income and expenses of a married couple. If between you the two of you, your Debt-to-Income ratio meets the criteria, approval with your son as the primary borrower could work.
