Can an illegal immigrant inherit a portion of a nj pension?

Diana L. Anderson
Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
I have never heard of any case where a person's immigration status prevents them from being able to inherit something from an estate.  The problem the person is going to have is needing a Social Security number or other idetnifying information to be able to cliam the inheritance, and pay potential taxes on it.  you might be better served leaving a different asset to the person.

My two brothers and I made a verbal agreement we will take care of our elderly mother, who is diagnosed with Dementia five years ago..

Richard Scott Diamond
Answered by attorney Richard Scott Diamond (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Diamond & Diamond, P.A.
I dont know if your mother has any assets ( home, pension plan, etc) but if she does, then maybe you and your siblings agree in writing that you will get a larger share of the remaining assets of her estate upon her passing to compensate you for the expenses incurred in caring for your mother. Since your mother has dementia, who has the power of attorney over her care and over her finances? Again, maybe you and your siblings can agree that you will be paid from her assets for the time spent and to be spent caring for her.

The realty is owned as tenants in common by husband and wife. When the first spouse died no estate tax was filed and the will was not probated.When

Diana L. Anderson
Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
There is no estate tax between husband and wife so no estate tax return would have to be filed.  I'm not sure why you are concerned about who gets what share if both spouses are dead.  Were the wills of each person different?  Is the disposition different?  Or is the concern did the whole house pass to the surviving spouse, and then the surviving spouse's will governs what happens to the house?  If you have more information, please feel free to call.
