I have a question about matrimonial home and wonder if any one on the forum has experience the same. The house that my husband and I lived in is in his name and in his sister’s name. His sister put up the down payment of the house as the money was their mother’s as it come from some life insurance that she received as well as the sale of her (mother’s) home. The sister handled their mother’s finances when their father passed away. The intent was that my husband and I move back to Canada to live in the house to help take care of his mother. We all moved in the house in July 2010 when it was completed.
The house was bought in November 2009 when we were living in another country and the original people listed on the house were his sisters. When we moved to Canada in July 2010 my ex was put on the title and mortgage when the house was finished building. They are indicating that the house is held in trust for their mother and that the house should be an exception.
Do I have any claim on the house? I am not listed on the title or mortgage but gave my ex $600 to help with utilities and groceries.
