It depends on what state you are from. But I think that it is 50/50 for everything. * Yes, if the debts were made during the marriage and if the couple reside in a community property state. Debts incurred by either spouse after a legal separation order has been issued are attributed to only the account holder. Debts incurred separately by married couples in a non community property state belong solely to the person who is named on the account regardless of the status of the marriage.
