If I declare myself Bankrupt is my wife responsible as well and has to contribute to my monthly payment ? We have joint account.
Thank you very much.

Hi Stephen & Welcome

All joint debts will become "Joint and several liability" once one of the other party becomes bankrupt, so that would mean that your wife would be liable for the whole of the debt.

If you have a joint account it may be worth opening another one, and also is there an OD on there.
