Can you drop a spouse from a mortgage without their signature by refinancing?
You can refinance without the spouse but you will need their consent to do so. If the spouse is on the title of the home, the answer is "no". If the spouse is on the existing mortgage the answer is "no". If the spouse is not on title you need to indicate on the loan application that you are married, and if you don't is fraud. At the time of closing she/he would have to be present. Inform you spouse of your actions.

Maybe you should ask them? Actually it would be surprising that the potential mortgagor would grant the mortgage unless your spouse (IF you are, in fact, legally married) failed to co-sign the documents.
If you have a home in Florida and want to refi and have gotten married does the spouse have to be on title or sign any documents if they are not on the mortgage?
It depends on whether the property is your primary residence/homestead or not. If it is, the spouse needs to sign the mortgage and have her name on the front page. It will typically say, for instance, "John Doe, joined by his wife, Jane Doe." If it's not homestead property, the spouse does not need to sign, but there needs to be language on the front page indicating that the mortgagor is encumbering non-homestead property.
How will refinancing rates be affected if a spouse with a low credit score is added to the policy?
Let me answer the question this way: the addition of somebody with low credit can't help a mortgage application, and may kill it. A lot depends on the mortgage being applied for (all mortgages have, as a criteria for acceptance, a range of acceptable credit scores) and how low, in fact, the spouse's credit scores are. Talk it over with the professional handling your mortgage. If, for instance, you need to add the spouse for income reasons, you might be better off to get a different sort of mortgage. Good luck.

Soon to be ex took out loan in spouse name without knowledge and spouse never received check what can he do?
You should notify the bank immediately that your name was forged on the loan documents. If the loan included a mortgage then the bank is out of luck if it cannot prove you signed it unless your state laws allow one spouse to mortgage their interest in the property. In that case, the bank would only have a mortgage on a one-half interest. You should seek the advice of an attorney.
If you are planning on filing bankruptcy without your spouse should you take your name off the mortgage by refinancing the home in just your spouse's name before filing?
I am the one who wrote this question, and now I have an answer that I will share. I spoke to our attorney, and the answer to the above question is NO, absolutely not, as the court will view this as a transfer of assets and you could be charged with fraud.
