Property held in a joint tenancy passes automatically to the surviving joint tenant. However, if the father owned any other property in his own right when he died then a claim can be filed against his estate on behalf of the minor child. The child would also be entitled to Social Security benefits.

Your father owns a real estate titled joint tenancy with his daughter if he dies will the estate pass on to his wife or his daughter?

I think the estate will be passed onto his daughter since the real estate entitled joint tenancy with his daughter. The surviving wife will, however, have a very strong case if the father dies intestate (without a will). Get Dad down to a good property lawyer and be prepared to spend $1000 or so.
