Family law-related question
Won't the OUST be concerned about this, since two "single-household"
separated spouses living together would each qualify for Chapter 7 at
$45k/yr salary where together at $90k/yr for 2-person household they
wouldn't? If I was OUST, I'd ask for evidence, and living together, with all
utility bills going to the same address, etc, short of gov't inspection
seeking a "War of the Roses" or Brady Bunch line drawn down the middle of
the house, I'm not sure how debtors would prove that they live together but
are somehow separated.

Thanks, David. If one spouse transfers money to the other under this
scenario, is that something that should be listed in SFA #10 or is this
just "ordinary support" between them? (there's also a child living with
them)

No. Spouses can be "separated" and still living under the same roof.

If spouses who were separated (living apart) for over a year, intending
to divorce, move back in together for financial reasons, are they then
considered still "separated"? Are debts incurred by one spouse while
living apart still community debts? (in other words, does moving back in
with each other re-transmute the community)?
