If it is required to get approval for your financing, then it is not optional. In the state of Nebraska you can ask that the MI be cancelled once you have paid your mortgage down to 80% based on the original value of the property or when you can show that the property has appreciated enough to show a current loan to value of 78% through appreciation.
