Usually the mortage is set up as a survivors deed. This means that if one person dies, the spouce receives the deed in their own name.

If this is not the case and the house wasn't willed to the other spouse, then it will have to be taken up in Probate Court.

In NH if a married spouse expires is the surviving spouse responsible for a credit card debt of the deceased spouse if the living spouse never signed any document.?

In Ohio, if the debt was owned jointly, then yes, you are responsible. If if wasn't, they cannot make you liable for another's debt. This is in Ohio. Credit reports are held in both owners name, if they are co-owners or own the debt jointly, such as a home mortgage. If the credit card is owned by spouse1 and spouse2 does not have permission to use it, then spouse1 is the only responsible person for that debt. Spouse2 cannot be held responsible - in all financial transactions in the state of Ohio, even if the debt has incurred from some other country or state. Wherever you reside determines the law for the consumer. Check your state for that.
