<prompt> Human: After living with my GF for a while Im starting to find out how horribly financially irresponsible shes been in the past and its really biting us in the ass.Her pay has been garnished for the better part of a year. She promised she wouldnt let it happen again but after getting pulled over and finding out her license is suspended for unpaid fines Im finding out she has several thousand more dollars in debt that is going to be queued up for garnishment next. As it is she wont get a full paycheck for a couple of years.Normally Id just ride through it, but we have two kids. I take care of them and work as a self-employed computer repair tech on the weekends and in my spare time. I make decent money from an hourly perspective but I dont have a ton of time to work. Now Im shuttling her back and forth to work so I have even less time to schedule jobs. Her job provides the family benefits that self-employment doesnt provide so me switching to full time work isnt an option. Getting her license back would completely wipe out our savings thats already taken a hit from a recent move.I can only imagine her credit is rock bottom. Would there be anything to lose in filing for bankruptcy? We need to get these garnishments off our back theyre nearly 500mo currently and she needs her drivers license so I can actually schedule work.Any advice would be very welcome.  <response>: You need to figure out what else she might be hiding debt or otherwise and get a clear view of her financial picture before you think about doing anything.
