What happens to credit card debt in divorce?
When you get a divorce, you are still responsible for any debt in your name. Most states follow “common law,” which means that a court will hold you responsible for any credit card debt that is solely in your name, and will hold you jointly liable for credit card debt that is in both your name and your spouse’s name.
Can my husband use my credit card without my permission?
While it is legal for your spouse to use your credit card with your permission, you’re on the hook for any charges your spouse makes. This is the case even if you give your spouse specific limitations, such as where he can use the card or how much he can spend, that he subsequently ignores.
Can I go to jail for using my husbands credit card?
Probably not. Only public agency may prosecute criminal actions. Best h can do is report the incident to police.
Can I let my wife use my debit card?
You can but it is frowned upon, as it is issued for use only by the named cardholder. You will be liable for ALL transactions by these family members, so only do this if you trust them explicitly. No.. Lending money is different than giving someone your credit card or debit card to use it.
