To change your name on your accounts, you will need to meet with a banker in your nearest Wells Fargo branch. Please bring your updated photo ID and an original or a certified copy of any supporting documents (such as marriage certificate, divorce decree, or other court orders).
No, you cannot remove someone from the mortgage without refinancing.
Improperly denied mortgage modifications: During at least a seven-year period, the bank improperly denied thousands of mortgage loan modifications, which in some cases led to Wells Fargo customers losing their homes to wrongful foreclosures.
Once a loan modification is approved and the new terms are in effect, it is generally considered final. However, borrowers may be able to negotiate further modifications if their financial situation changes again. It is essential to maintain communication with the lender and explore all available options.
Whether visiting a bank location in person or using a bank's customer service phone line to initiate a name change, you should be prepared to provide these documents: A certified copy of your marriage certificate. Your updated Social Security card. Your updated photo ID (driver's license, passport, etc.).

If one of the divorcing spouses wants to keep the home, applying for a modification while the divorce is pending is possible. But if both spouses signed the original loan documents, then both spouses will usually have to sign the modification documents.
