prenup or no prenup
Hello,
My question is...When I marry if i don't have a prenup am I responsible for his past and current debts? We are not living together at this time and I share no debts with him currently. I live in Calfornia if that makes a difference. |

Re: prenup or no prenup
You can be liable going forward, but not for past debts normally.
Whether you are married or single, you alone are normally responsible for paying off the debt. The account will appear only on your credit report, and may in limited cases appear on the credit report of any "authorized" user. However, if you live or have lived in a community property state (Arizona, California, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Washington, or Wisconsin), you and your spouse in some cases may be responsible for debts incurred during the marriage, and the individual debts of one spouse may appear on the credit report of the other. |
