What is the name of your state? WA
I raised this issue on another forum and got some good info and answers to my question albeit not totally answered.. therefore a follow up: My wife is in default on a credit card debt that is in her name only. Currently we have no joint assets,our "newer" car and associated loan in my name only. I removed myself from our formerly joint bank checking and saving accounts. I maintain a separate account. She is unemployed and on SSDI. i understand that if they sue and get a judgement against her that they could seize her accounts and any non-exempt property (nothing that I forsee). SSDI is untouchable on a CC debt. but the question that i didn't get the answer to was : can they get a garnishment on my wages?. WA is a community property state .TIA
