Florida is not a CP state, therefore if only one spouse is the debtor and the bank account is held as Tenancy By The Entirety it is theoretically not subject to levy.
Please note, the non debtor must submit documentation of a TBE defense to the court. Exemption of such bank accounts is not "automatic" and requires a ruling by the court as to the status of the account(s).

In Florida, whether a wife is responsible for her deceased husband's business credit card debt generally depends on how the debt was incurred and the nature of the account. If the credit card was solely in the husband's name and used exclusively for business purposes, the estate may be responsible for the debt, not the wife personally. However, if the wife was a co-signer or if the debt was incurred for joint expenses, she could be held liable. It's advisable to consult a legal professional for specific circumstances.
