Regarding business credit cards with multiple users.

[SUB]

I have a couple of cards with my sole proprietorship's name/my name on them. My meaningful other also has the same cards with my biz name/hers.


Is she in anyway, held liable when I file?

[HHM]

If your in a community property state, more than likely.

If not in a community property state, if she is merely an authorized user, probably not.

[SUB]

Not married. She was added as an "employee authorized user".

Am Ex, and BofA, both only asked name and SS#.

She does live with me, but is not on any accounts other than the two cards.

Edit to add: Would cancelling the authorized user cards be a good idea?

[HHM]

Hmmmm, an employee that is a "meaningful other"

[SUB]

Looks like I have to fire her.

Of course it will be hard on the kids. But they'll get over it when I start 'interviewing'.

Sometimes "Meaningful others" start that way first then become employees.

My boyfriend and I are going into business together. The way we're structuring things, we'll eventually be employees of our own company.

I still need to learn more about that ...
