Question:   I filed bankruptcy before I met my husband. Now my husband is applying for a personal loan, and it requires his spousal information to be filled in on his Personal Financial Information sheet. Will my bankruptcy record affect his application for loans? I know they will do a credit check on him, but will they do a credit check for the spouse as well?

Answer:  

It will be up to the lending institution as to whether your previous bankruptcy will affect your husband's application. Most financial institutions will request info on the spouse if the applicant is married. They may just grant the loan on the merit of your husband's application.
