If my husband steals, is there anything I can do or should do to protect myself?

You really need a lawyer for a divorce involving complexities such as the ones this character is causing. There's nothing wrong with filing a police report, but you should probably be bringing motions in family court to have him held in contempt and otherwise restrained. You can get a substitute W-2 from your employer. If you file taxes separately from him, which is probably a good idea, the IRS will notify you if he has tried to file a joint return. You can tell them then that he forged your signature. A marriage as short as 18 months, especially under these circumstances, is not likely to lead to an order for you to pay him any spousal support, but you will need to stand up for yourself for better, find an experienced lawyer to do it for you.

When is a house a community property?

In Nevada there can be a community interest in a home owned prior to marriage. In the event that community labor went into the home then arguments can be made that a percentage of the home equity can be attributed to the community.
