I don't have (or believe in) secret accounts, but I prepare our tax return, and DH just signs it. He does not look at anything that goes into it.

If someone is hiding an account from their spouse, I wouldn't doubt that would just hide the 1099 when it came in the mail. Not a smart idea, but I wouldn't doubt that it happens.
