Here is another quick question. I got divorced. There were 3 credit cards in my wifes name. She was the primary, I was a authorized user on the cards. She was going to take responsibility for the cards. She is now doing bankruptcy. Will the card companies turn and come after me?

"Authorized User" is not a responsible party. For any accounts that you were joint on the account, not just AU, you could be billed.Most of my information is from personal experience or HOURS and HOURS of online research. When you're searching online, keep in mind there is no guarantee that the info is completely up to date, and your situation is unique from anyone else's. Do your homework, and consult with an attorney so you can make an informed decision.

But seriously, anytime there is a divorce, (especially since having gone thru it myself five years ago), get your name off everything joint, IMMEDIATELY!Filed Oct 2005discharged February 2007,Shapeless in the fire's glow, tell me if you think you know,
