Credit card debt after death
My mother has quite a bit of credit card debt, is 94 with gradually failing health. We live together, I take care of her, have legal power of attorney, pay her bills etc. Her only assets consist of a home with a substanial mortgage and two cars that are in a revocable living trust that are being left to me. Can credit card companies go after her house or the cars after her death when they are being left to me? Would I be forced to sell the house to pay her debt even if I live there too? I believe we did homestead the house, but am not sure. She has a good income now from some lifetime annuities, but they end upon her death, so there is really no money. I am an authorized user of one of the cards, but have been paying the protection plus to cover it upon her death, so that one will be paid off. All the others are in her name only.:confused:
