Opening a credit line in both your name and your spouse's name is generally legal, provided that both parties consent to the application and the terms of the credit. It's important to ensure that you have your spouse's permission, as applying without their knowledge could be considered fraud. Additionally, both of you will typically be responsible for any debts incurred on that credit line. Always check specific laws and regulations in your jurisdiction for any nuances that may apply.
