TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a spouse visa for a DTV, the money can be in the name of the spouse if they possess the funds. However, if the money belongs to the DTV visa holder, they should provide a sponsorship letter along with their bank statement.

Remember sponsorship DTV’s are harder to get than a normal DTV.

The bank account can be in the spouse's name if the spouse has the money, otherwise the main DTV holder will supply a sponsorship letter and show their Bank statement
