"If you wish to rely on a joint account as evidence of available funds, you must be named on the account along with one or more other named individual."

And for showing earnigs do i need to take monthly statement from bank about salary getting into my account and from my employer.

"it is essential that earnings are corroborated by more than one source, so you must send at least two of the following from different sources as proof of your earnings:

* payslips;
* personal bank statements;
* letter from your employer;
* official tax document;
* dividend vouchers;
* letter from your managing agent or accountant;
* invoice explanations or payment summaries;
* company or business accounts.

You must send at least two different types of supporting document for each source of earnings claimed. Each piece of supporting evidence must be from a separate source and support all the other evidence so that together they clearly prove the earnings claimed.

For example, when sending documents for salaried employment, you should not send payslips together with a letter from the employer, because we consider both of these documents to be from the same source."

Also i would suggest you must read the TIER 1 supporting evidence requirements on the UKBA website
