Q: Can the credit card company go after me if my husband ( not me)files for chapter 7 in PA with the cards on his name only
I live in NJ and he lives in PA even if we are married . Most of the debit is before we got married but he kept using the cards after the marriage . His lawyer wants my pay stubs even if I am not filing. I am scared the companies go after me even if the cards are not mine and I have never signed anything.
A: They cannot come after you at all but your pay stubs are still needed for the means test to determine whether he can file Chapter 7. Two totally separate issues but you cannot be liable.
