Question: Who is responsible for paying the bills?

Answer:

Both spouses have equal management and control over the community property, and have equal responsibility for community debts. And, both have an obligation to provide for the support of the other and of all minor children. Either spouse may be responsible for necessities furnished to the other or their minor children (ARS §25-214 and §25-501).
