We live in Michigan, my wife has several credit cards with high balances. I am not an owner, co-owner, authorized signer, or even have complete information on how many or by who. If she dies before me, do I have to pay them off ??
No, but, if her estate has enough assets in it, it would be obligated. When the time comes, if it does, contact a good lawyer and give him or her all of the financial facts. Good luck.
