Married couples can file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy jointly by submitting a single application that includes both spouses' financial information, debts, and assets. They must meet the eligibility requirements, including passing the means test, which assesses their income against state median levels. Both spouses are responsible for the debts listed in the bankruptcy, and filing jointly can often simplify the process and reduce costs. It's advisable to consult with a bankruptcy attorney to navigate the complexities and ensure proper filing.
