That said, I do know of husbands and wives who have maintained separate adsense accounts. So it can be done. You probably just need to make extra sure that everything about both of your sites is squeaky clean.

Why not ask the Google Adsense people and get it on record?

My wife and I work together in a small company, have two laptop computers in the business but often keep switching for a variety of reasons (specific software on only one computer, one person is better at content other at formatting, etc.). We do have two accounts, with obviously separate SSN, but we know each others passwords and most of the time one person checks stats for both often minutes apart. Obviously, since we run a few websites, they are all nicely linked.

Everything we do is legal, we pay taxes together as a couple like any other American family, never a fraudulent click, and have been with AdSense for 5 years now generating annual income in six figures.

As netmeg said, there is nothing to worry if you run a clean business and are legally OK (IRS and all).

It would be a violation of privacy and rather stupid of Google to assume that just because two people access its account from same computer, somehow they are crooks.
