It depends. If the account is a joint account with right of survivorship (JTROS), it goes to your sister and not to his estate. Otherwise, it may go to his estate.

Upon your father's death, his half of the joint bank account would typically pass directly to your sister as the surviving account holder. It would not be included in his estate and would not go through probate.

Does stepmom get house and property that father had before their marriage after fathers death?

In most cases, the stepmom does not automatically receive the house and property that the father owned before their marriage upon the father's death. The distribution of assets would typically follow the father's will or intestacy laws if there is no will in place. It's important to consult with a legal professional to understand the specific laws that apply in the relevant jurisdiction.


Who has to PAy taxes UPON Death bank account?

When someone dies, their estate is responsible for paying any taxes owed on the assets they leave behind, including their bank accounts. The executor of the estate is typically responsible for ensuring that any taxes are paid from the deceased person's assets before they are distributed to heirs.


How do you find out if your father left you anything when he died. There is no known will and he was not married.?

You can check with the probate court in the county where your father lived at the time of his death to see if any assets have been filed for probate. If there is no will and no known beneficiaries, his assets may be distributed according to the state's intestacy laws. It may be helpful to consult with a probate attorney for guidance on how to proceed.


Can a 14 and 16 year old leave home and not be considered a runaway in the state of Indiana to live with Step-Mother after death of their father?

In Indiana, a minor is considered a runaway if they leave home without parental consent before the age of 18. To avoid being classified as a runaway, the 14 and 16 year olds would need legal permission from their guardians or through the court system to live with their stepmother after the death of their father. It's advisable to consult with a family law attorney to navigate this situation properly.

Can A son write will giving his share of inheritance from his father's estates to his surviving sister?

It is my opinion that the Florida law provides that the property transfers upon death of the father. The son can waive his interest in the property in the father's probate. If the property is being held in some kind of an account that does not require it to distributed until death of the beneficiaries then the son can create a will that waives his interest or just simply gives it to his sister. But I would have to review the case with the parties to give a better recommendation.

What happens to a joint bank account after someone dies and the second holder his wife to be was not yet put in his will but his sister was?

In the UK, where there is a joint bank account, any of the signatories on the account can do anything with the contents of the account. If one signatory dies, the position does not change and the remaining signatories can continue using the account. HOWEVER, for the purposes of inheritance tax, the contents of the account at the time of death must noted and, (unless there is documented proof to the contrary), a sum equal to the content divided by the number of signatories on the account will be included in the tax/probate calculations for the deceased.

Not sure what state you live in, but in Florida, the answer is YES as to your mother's assets. As her spouse upon death, the step-father has the rights. However, as to a sister or brother, your father will have the rights as to their assets if the step-father did not adopt them.

I have a joint account with my mother and father upon their death can i withdraw the funds?

Yes, you can do that. Since you are the joint holder of the bank accounts of your mother and father, you can very well withdraw funds from the account. However it is better to provide your parents' death certificate to the bank and convert them into single holding accounts because your parents are deceased and they can no longer use the accounts.
