If there is no legal connection (marriage or business partnership) there is no obligation. The estate has to be settled and the assets sold to pay off the debts before anything can be distributed.
You are because you incurred the debt.
The person's estate pays for all outstanding debts.
If your partner files for bankruptcy and you don't then the bankruptcy will not appear on your credit report. But you will be partly responsible for before bankruptcy filing. Generally filing bankruptcy will affect the credit rating of the individual who filed it.

When a customer pays their account, the outstanding balance on their credit account decreases, reflecting the payment in the account's transaction history. This reduction can improve the customer's credit utilization ratio, which is an important factor in credit scoring. Additionally, timely payments can positively impact the customer's credit score, demonstrating responsible credit management. Conversely, late or missed payments can lead to negative consequences, including fees and a lower credit score.
Put simply - it means it's your problem ! If you obtain a credit card, you are accountable for any purchases, and responsible for the outstanding balance.
The estate is responsible to pay outstanding debt before being distributed to the heirs.

Nothing happens to you.. It wont affect you anymore that it affects me... LOL But your partner will have a foreclosure on their Credit Profile. You are responsible only for the payment history on any loan with your name on it. The Foreclosure that your partner suffered shows only on the foreclosed party's credit bureau. You probably won't want to use that person as a co-borrower for a while. No mater what the type of Lender you apply to, you will have a rate and or fee add-on; due to the partners previous foreclosure.

If person dies with debt, the debt does not die with them and their creditors have the right to be repaid from the deceased's estate. The executors of the estate need to be aware of any debts in order that they can deal with them. If there is no estate, or if the debts are relatively small, creditors may well write off the debt. If any debts are in joint names, the surviving partner will remain liable for the debt.

Both owners of a joint credit card are equally responsible for paying off the balance on the card. When one dies the survivor is responsible for the full balance.
