My husband and I own a home that is in his parents name because he thinks his ex can lay claim to the house.?

Question

We live in Alberta, Canada. They have a child together but never lived together. We have been married over a year. I am trying to get him to get the house put into his name so that we have more security. Besides hiring a lawyer to answer this, does anybody have any ideas?

he and his ex, were never married and never lived together. He pays child support plus daycare for his daughter every month. She is always after him for more money that is why he is scared of the equity in our house. We want to know if she is entitled. We would never keep anything from his daughter, she is very well taken care of. Its the ex that is money hungry.

plus his parents want him to take it on as they want to purchase another property for themselves.

Answer 1

STOP! It is safer to keep it in his parent's name. Upon their passing, the house can revert to him.

My grandparents did this for my father. It wasn't signed over to him until just a year ago.

What I want to know is why do you WANT it signed over? How does it make you more secure?

Truth

Answer 2

basically by fact a sources is in some else's call does not advise which you will no longer have an pastime in it. this means that for the duration of divorce a spouse (or husband) can declare against such an asset in the event that they could tutor that the call on the call documentation does not tutor the authentic place. besides the undeniable fact that, it is a quick marriage and subsequently this could be taken under consideration. somebody before pronounced which you may desire to be married for 5 years till now you additionally could make a declare on a pension, that's no longer splendid.

Answer 3

I really don't know how the laws are in Canada, but ANYTIME
THERE IS ....CHILDREN FROM ANY TYPE OF ''UNION'',
THEN...THE CHILD IS ALWAYS ....ENTITLED...TO ''THEIR
PART'' OF AN ESTATE of either birth parent, unless the child
is under the name, of someone who is not the birth parent.
A spouse has the right to ''put a lien'' on land, belonging to
another spouse, even if the land is in the parents name...and
the birth parent is on that property, esp. if the parents of that
spouse, are also in the bloodline, of the child(ren) involved.
(This is just in case, the birth father/mother becomes de-
ceased, or has not sufficiently met the requirement for the
child support payments).
The ex-wife/spouse, is entitled to monetary value of some
type, to cover the expenses of raising the child, and these
expenses can cover anything from housing / food / clothing /
medical coverage (hospital & doctor & dentist bills), to
school supplies.
IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF ''BOTH BIRTH PARENTS''
TO MAKE SURE THAT CHILD, BECOMES EDUCATED
TO ADULTHOOD, AND TO HAVE A SAFE ENVIRONMENT
IN WHICH TO LIVE, TIL THAT TAKES PLACE.
There is nothing you can do to change that fact. No amount
of fussing and fighting can change that either...
YOU MARRIED INTO THE PROBLEMS OF YOUR ''NOW''
HUSBAND...AND YOU HAVE ASKED, TO BE SHOULD-
ERED WITH ''HIS PROBLEMS'' TOO...by marrying him.
Should he not pay the required Upkeep for the child, and
allow a ''portion of his estate'' to be given to the child, as
per law, then, should you be in the working field, and file
income tax under your present ''married name'' then should
you be eligible, for any ''refunds of cash'', you may find that
ALL YOUR REFUND, has gone to pay for YOUR HUS -
BAND'S RESPONSIBILITIES. and you can do nothing to
change that. It is part of the BLOODLINEAGE, the child
inherits, by being BORN INTO THAT BLOODLINE...
Nothing about a Connecting Bloodline, can ever be erased...
it is there, FOR LIFE.
Should your husband cooperate, in allowing support of the
child, he should have Equal Rights for Visits with the child,
and this is Nothing that the Spouse can do anything about,
either....because it took both of them to bring the child into
this world, and until the child is 18, THEY BOTH HAVE A
RESPONSIBILITY TO THAT CHILD(REN), and a third
party, is not involved, with that bloodline, but they are in
a position of ''substitute parent" and can have a ''positive in-
fluence on the child's life".
I would suggest that your husband do all he can, TO BE-
COME A PART OF THAT CHILD'S LIFE, AS MUCH AS
POSSIBLE, AND DEMAND HIS ''PARENTAL RIGHTS''
SHOULD HE HAVE A DESIRE TO.
Either way, HE IS SUCKERED IN, THRU HIS OWN NEGLECT OF ''PROTECTIVE SEX'' & BEARING A CHILD,
THAT ....HE IS STUCK WITH 18 YEARS OF RESPONSI-
BILITY TO THAT CHILD....unless he is willing to deny his
paternity...and sign legal papers, which will ''divorce'' himself
from that child's life, and give the full responsibility to the
child's birth mother.
But let me say this, if he did do this, and the birth mother is
killed or dies, then HE HAS NO RIGHTS TO PUT CLAIM ON
THE CHILD.....HIS CHILD...
and what a shame that would be to the child...
Can't you just see a child growing up, to realize that his
birth mother or birth father, signed papers, to deny him a
connection, to his ''birth bloodlineage" ??????
That'd be a rude awakening for the child, for sure.
IT DOESN'T TAKE A LAWYER TO FIGURE OUT THAT
A CHILD "DOES EXIST'' AND THAT ''THE BIRTH PARENTS'' NOW HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY...TO THE
CHILD...but it might take a lawyer, to straighten out such a
mess.
Don't let your husband try to tell you any different, either.
I've been around enough people & cases, to know that some
people don't have much common sense, and yet they want
to have the full say-so, & try to get a current spouse, to think
they know it all, when they don't... (hope this helps...TF)

Answer 4

Talk to a lawyer. But his ex can't get ****!!! They never even lived together HELLO!! unless he's not paying child support. He's protecting himself from YOU because he's married to you. I say change it A.S.A.P and if you guys are paying for it then keep FOR YOUR RECORDS ONLY... bank statements, check copies, mortgage statements.etc... Anything that proves YOU are paying for the house also..

Answer 5

If its in his parents name then you do not own it...his parents do.

If the divorce is final then I don't think she can take anything. You aren't going to like it, but would ask a lawyer to double check.

Answer 6

so you both could be more secure???? try putting it in both of your names or if you ever divorce you will not have a chance of getting your share of the equity

Answer 7

It would be better if the house would be in your name as well, to protect you.

Answer 8

lol you stupid fool! the house is in his parents name to protect HIM from the ex and YOU!

Answer 9

Put it in your name if he is so afraid of his ex.
