What Is Marital Debt?
Marital debt may be a debt accumulated by either spouse during the course of the marriage, and often includes:
- Home and real estate mortgages
- Credit card and consumer loan debt
- Medical bills
- Business loans and debt
- Student loans
- Auto loans, boat loans
- IRS/tax obligations
Unfortunately, even if a debt is only in one spouse’s name, if it was accrued during the marriage, it may be a marital debt subject to equitable distribution.
