What can I do if I have my wife's name on my bank account for information purposes only and not as a joint owner?

I am unsure of your question. If the bank says she is not a co-signor, then she cannot remove funds, so there would be no problem. However, if you are in the middle of a divorce any monies earned during the marriage are community property and subject to division by the court, upon a court order, the characterization of property as community or separate will not happen until you get to a final trial date or come to a final Judgment with a Settlement Agreement (not just temporary orders at a hearing). This is the reason that the automatic restraining orders listed on your Summons go into effect immediately (neither of you may use, dispose of, encumber any assets except in the ORDINARY purposes of everyday life (normal living expenses) without the court's approval.

Your county of residence is the proper place to file for divorce. If you've lived in your current county for at least ninety days and the state of Texas for 6 months, you've met the jurisdictional requirements to file for divorce where you currently live. For more information, be sure to contact a local attorney for a divorce consultation.

If you got your 401k before you were married do you have to pay your wife support?

Answered by attorney Willie Stephen Graves (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Graves Law Firm
The portion of your 401k that you already had when you got married should qualify as your separate property. Any increases/additions that happened during the marriage are likely to be treated as community property.
