No, you cannot. Having a joint PayPal account is a violation of Paypal's TOS. I had an account for about a year with both mine and my wife's name on it. At some point, Paypal noticed and locked my account. Everything was frozen. I couldn't send money, withdraw, etc. I needed to jump through a bunch of hoops, faxing documents including my SS card, a utility bill, etc. to prove my identity and they told me the problem was the joint status on the account. After everything, it took about a week for everything to be resolved and they removed my wife's name from the account.

What allows the husband and wife to deposit and withdraw money from the same place?

Joint accounts. A joint account has both peoples' names on it so either of them can withdraw from it. Also there's no saying they couldn't have separate accounts and still be able to deposit and withdraw from the same bank. Just not from the same account.

What is a joint savings account?

A Joint Savings Account is when two people have joint access to the savings account. If a Wife and Husband, Boyfriend and girlfriend, parents and child open a Joint Account then "either" one of them can access ALL the money in the account. If one of them is involved in an illegal activity the Police can freeze the WHOLE account and "can" take ALL the money. It would be up to you to prove the money didn't come from the illegal activity. (Actually they would freeze separate accounts in the same household also) Good and bad parts are you both can access the money as needed, but the other person can "empty" the account with out your say so.
