Louisiana is the state.
I received a divorce 5-1-2005. I had the mortgage changed over into my name. I noticed my ex-wife's name still on the invoice for my property taxes. I went to the tax accessor's office and they said I needed to file Community Property in Conveyances. They pulled up my Community Property Agreement on file and printed it for our review. It had all the legal stuff about the parties and being bound by agreement in the top half. The first option reads:
Kyle will immediately take the necessary steps to have the community residences located at XXXX placed solely in his name, and have the name of (ex-wife) removed from the mortgage on said property.
I had her name removed from the property but the accessor's office is saying I didn't take the steps for the property.
What do I need to do to get her off the property? Do I amend the Community property and re-file with the clerk of court? Does that require me to go before the judge again?
Can I just get a piece of paper signed by both us and notorized stating she is giving me the house?
Thanks for any help,
Kyle
