There are two ways to remove a divorced partner from a mortgage: obtaining a release of liability from the lender or refinancing the mortgage. A release from liability is easier, but counts on the lender granting permission.
There's a process to getting the mortgage payoff statement. First, you'll need to contact your lender and let them know you want the information. Depending on your lender, you may have to sign in to an online account, call a helpline, or send a formal letter to start the request process.

In Utah, there is no minimum time period that you need to be separated before a divorce is granted. No matter how long you have been separated, the court will grant your divorce 91 days after filing.
Utah is an equitable distribution state. Essentially, this means that during a divorce, any property (including the marital home) is divided fairly but not always equally.
The way to ask that the waiting period be waived is to file a Motion to Waive Divorce Waiting Period. The motion will not be granted automatically; the moving party must show extraordinary circumstances. A copy of the Motion must be served on the other party following Utah Rule of Civil Procedure 5.
To get a copy of your divorce decree, contact the court that handled the divorce case. Use the Court Directory to find contact details.
