Adding to previous answer:
#2 - Create Sub-Accounts for you and your spouse of the Credit Card
account. Import to them separately as Sherlock noted, then when
reconciling, you can do one at a time and see only one set of
transactions. You won't be able to finish the reconcile, because at
best, you can just check cleared transactions this way. When both of
these are done, reconcile the parent account and choose to include
sub-accounts. Now that everything on the statement has been checked as
cleared, you are just entering balance info and a closing date. If you
have a variance, then you'll have to dig in and get messy, but that
would happen in any case.

2. Like many married couples, we have a shared credit card account. We
have two credit cards his and hers. Statement lists the transactions by
credit card, like his expenses and then her expenses as two different
sections. However importing transactions orders by transaction dates.
This causes either duplicate transactions or other headaches. There is
one bill for both transactions. Imported file has an element called
CCACCTNO which might be helpful in this scenario. Since its shared
account, I get to export only one qfx file which has both account
entries. Can GnuCash add account number to transaction description or
import transactions in two different accounts - may be child accounts of
parent account and allow me to reconcile both accounts?
