A creditor can not seize your account unless: 1) They are also your bank and you signed agreements allowing "right of offset" where the bank can take funds from your accounts to satisfy delinquent loans you have with them. 2) Your creditor obtained a court order allowing them to attach funds or place a levy on funds. Insufficient income is grounds for credit denial but I am not aware of any possible situation where funds in a bank account may be frozen or taken when a loan is current and low income is the only problem.
No, when filing for the federal income tax return, you do not attach the Schedule A for the state income tax return.
A creditor can garnish wages or attach assets if they have obtained a judgment against the debtor.
They wouldn't attach a debit card, they would attach the bank account. If there is a debit card the account is connected to, I suppose you could say they've attached it.
I believe so - When you get married you assume all the debts.

They can garnish your wages. Texas only allows a judgment creditor to garnish wages if the creditor has no other options available to execute the judgment. A judgment creditor can levy a bank account including a joint account or a joint marital account. Regular earned income (wages) deposited into a bank account are NOT exempt from creditor seizure. The creditor may also seize and liquidate any non exempt assets belonging to the debtor (bonds, stocks, jewelry, livestock, a specified amount of tools of trade, in some cases household furnishings, etc). Texas is a community property state, therefore, it might be possible for the judgment creditor to seize joint marital property even if only one spouse is the debtor. Some income, however, cannot be attached by creditors or persons who prevail in a lawsuit. For example, disability income, Social Security income and military retirement income cannot be garnished or attached by a creditor.

Yes, your truck can be repossessed even if you are using it to earn an income, however, you can tell your creditor that you are earning money with your truck, and that if the creditor does not repossess the truck you will use that income to make payments on your loan. Of course, if you are not making payments, and spending all of your income on other things, then the creditor has no motive to let you keep the truck.

NO. Social Security income is protected from creditor claims.
A divorce decree cannot alter the rights of the original creditor. The court can decided who gets the asset, but the both spouses remain liabile to the creditor.

probably not
Unless otherwise noted by a prenup, any income while married is the property of both spouses. If a prenup exists, any income would be distributed or unattainable by a spouse as determined by the documents.

Both spouses are responsible for the DEBT represented by the lien, but the lien can only attach to the interest of whoever is actually on title to the property.
