I have had a mortgage with GE money for approx 4 years, it was a joint mortgage with my ex partner, we separated approx 12 months ago, we came to an agreement where I would stay in the house.
I have contacted GE money to request my ex partners name to be removed from the mortgage, to do this I needed to complete a transfer of equity / contract variation application.
long story short is I have been declined, the reason for the decline is that I am not a UK tax payer.
I live in Scotland but work offshore on an oil rig in Norway, pay Norwegian tax, get paid in Norwegian currency.
will this decline be the same across the market
and can someone explain why not paying UK tax would be a reason for a mortgage application to be declined ?
