In Alberta, dower rights are legal protections that may apply when one spouse owns the family home. In general terms, a married spouse who is not on title may have rights that affect selling, mortgaging or otherwise dealing with the home. Consent or a formal waiver may be required, depending on the circumstances.

The details matter: dower rights can depend on marital status, the property and how it is used. This is general information, not legal advice. Speak with an Alberta lawyer for advice about your situation.
