YES ITS ILLEGAL. I've asked my hub before if he would do it for me and he said people go to jail all the time for that, so NO WAY... he would know. He has a govt job.

Yes it is illegal to forge anyone else's signature. On checks, on contracts, on anything. Besides having to deal with the police consider this; Many companies will take you to court to get the money not caring if your signature was forged.
It's time for some tough love. CYA

If both of your names are on the account and on the checks, then either one of you can write checks. If only your name is on there (even if you're married), only you can legal write the checks from that account.

If his name is NOT on the account then YES, IT'S ILLEGAL. However, you will have to sign an affidavit and press charges against him before the bank will reimburse any of the money and/or charges back. It doesn't matter how much money he puts in the account, all that matters is whether or not his name is on the account.

Yes it is illegal...but the bank will not compare signatures for every single check transactions...so you have to tell them otherwise they won't do anything about it.

Yeah; it's forgery; but what can you do, prefer charges against him?
Take the checks away from him.

Technically it is forgery, But if you and your husband have an agreement then that's between the two of you.

Fraud and check forgery. Writting bad checks can land you in jail.

Tell him he needs to start living within your means and not over spending.
