Your questions will be answered at your community property settlement hearing or stipulated settlement. Keep track of all the rental and you will have a right to be paid when the community is settled. If your name is on the property and lease, then you can demand the tenant cut 2 checks. It is hard to say more without knowing whose name the property is in and likewise the lease.
