They stay separate. Whoever is listed 1st on the account, owns it and it is reported on their credit report. My wife has a higher score than I do, but she has less in her name.

The quickest way to lower you score is to be at 50% or less on any account that you can. So if you have a $10K limit on a credit card, make sure your balance is $5K or less.
