Hi
The answer is yes,most probably.Creditors will argue that in a husband and wife situation both have benefited from the credit,even if it is only in one persons name.
You can see their point

Your wife's savings will not be taken into account, but her disposable income is likely to be based on the details Andy has provided above. Have your wife's savings genuinely come from money she has saved directly from her own income?

Both incomes would be taken into account (including any committments of your wife)compared to the household expenditure. Her savings (as long as it has come from herself or outside third parties) would not come into the equation. Good luck.
