Yes and No. Yes, if the money is commingled with other marital money - i.e. deposited into a joint checking/savings account. No, if the money was deposited into an individual account of only the specific spousal recipient and no additional marital funds are ever added to that account. However, should portions of the received money ever be used to pay for a portion of or a total expense (i.e. kitchen remodel, down-payment on a car, etc) then that item or remodel cost could be deemed to have become marital property.

When an estranged parent dies does the grown adult child get anything?

Whether a grown child is estranged from his or her parent does not affect that child's right to inherit from the parent. The grown adult child's right to inherit ("get anything") depends on three things. First, does the adult have a will and is the adult child named in the parent's will? If so, the adult child will inherit, even if he or she is estranged from the parent. Second, if there is no will, then the laws of intestacy determine who gets the property of the dead parent. These laws vary from state to state and are determined by the state of residency of the dead parent. Often, assets of a dead parent are split between a surviving spouce and children under such laws. Lastly, the adult child could inherit ("get something") if he or she is named as a beneficiary on a life insurance policy, brokerage account, bank account or if he or she is a joint tenant or tenant in common on a piece of property or other asset. These assets pass outside of the dead person's estate and that person's will.

No, the child can not. The other parent could before the child was an adult. The money goes to the parent to use for the child and not directly to the child.

If an adult child is staying with their parents temporarily does the adult child have legal rights to their parent's residence because they receive mail at their parent's address?

Receiving mail as a guest in your parents' home does not give you any legal rights in their property. You may be entitled to notice under state laws if they want to evict you but you have no other rights in the property.
