Townhouse in my name only

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
If you put your husband's name on the deed you can do it as joint tenants with right of survivoship.  That way the townshouse will pass to himautomoatically upon your deaht, and will pass to you automatically upon his death.  Without changing the deed, the property will not pass automatically to him on your death even though you are husband and wife.

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

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.
