If I can just clarify the siuation.
If you own your home, then your husband may need to declare himself bankrupt and if there is equity in the property, the Official Receiver would want to realise this money. However if you do not own your property, he would be eligible to apply for a Debt Relief Order as his debts are under £15,000.
All the best.
