No, Florida is not a community property state therefore debts not jointly incurred belong solely to the person who holds the account. In Florida married couples are generally presumed to hold jointly owned property as Tenancy By The Entirety (TBE) which makes such property exempt from creditor action when only one spouse is responsible for the debt.

Is the wife responsible for deceased husband's business credit card debt in the state of Florida?

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.
