Stepparents are not responsible for their stepchildren. You are not responsible for your husband's child(ren). However, to collect unpaid support, the State may place liens on real and personal property, including bank accounts, even though you are a joint owner.

Can your current spouse be forced to pay child support for your child of a former marriage or liaison?

A spouse is almost never required to directly pay a new spouse's child support. However, depending on the state, a new spouse may be indirectly forced to pay. For example, they may not be able to garnish your pay check, but they can take money from a joint bank account, a joint tax refund, a joint loan, and basically any sort of financial asset that has both of your names on it. Some states also calculate child support based on "household" income. When you move in with your new spouse, your income is added to theirs and that new, larger amount is then used to calculate a larger monthly child support payment. Some states expressly forbid this though, so again, it depends on the state that child support was ordered in.

Can child support garnish an inheritance that the beneficiary owes?

Yes, child support can potentially garnish an inheritance if the beneficiary owes child support payments. In many jurisdictions, child support obligations take precedence over inheritance, meaning that funds received from an inheritance can be subject to garnishment to satisfy outstanding child support debts. However, specific laws and regulations vary by state, so it's important to consult legal counsel for guidance regarding individual circumstances.
