Putting salary in separate account
      #537229 - 05/22/09 09:58 AM

I and my husband due to many conflict start putting our salary in separate accounts and transfer some money in the joint account to pay bills. In the light of divorce, will our savings in our accounts consider a community property? We live in California. Will there a way to trace that out how much we made how much was saved?

Yes, even if you put the money in separate accounts it is considered community property. As soon as you legally separate, then the monies you earn after that will be your own.

No. They are presumed marital and were earned during the marriage, You would have to demonstrate that they were not derived from the marital good which is presumed. Only proceeds accrued after a "legal" separation would, in some states, be presumed to be separate property.
