TL;DR

If your ex-spouse was awarded your home in a divorce, your VA loan benefit is not gone forever, but it is tied to that property. Here is what you need to know about restoring it:

Entitlement Restoration is Key: To use your VA loan benefit for a new home purchase, you must first restore the entitlement used on the original loan.
Refinancing is Required: The most common path to full restoration is for your ex-spouse to refinance the mortgage into their own name, which pays off the original VA loan and releases your liability.
Know the Restoration Types: A full restoration is repeatable and the standard for divorce cases.
A Divorce Decree is Not Enough: The legal decree alone does not release your entitlement from the VA loan; the loan itself must be paid off.
