Can your husband change the address on your joint account without your knowledge and signature?

Yes, he can do that. A joint account is equally held/owned by both parties involved in the bank account. So each party can individually initiate banking transactions that can be done by any other customer who holds a single operating account. So in this case, either you or your husband can do this change of address thing without each other's knowledge or signature.

Can wife add her name to his checking account without his approval legally?

No she can't as a matter of fact without his written permission she can't even get general information about that account. This is what I found to be amazing, if this couple has a joint savings account, but the husband's name is the only one on the checking account, he is the only one that can legally transfer money from the savings account to the checking account. It also works this way if there is a joint checking account and money needs to be transferred from the joint checking account, to the savings account with only the husband's name on it, he is the only one that can move money from one account to the other. I am a bank manager and I know this is more information than you asked for, but when I have to explain this to couples, it often leads to a very heated discussion between them in my office. I live in Virginia and I can only answer for Virginia. I hope you found this answer helpful.
