How long do you have to be married before she is entitled to my estate?

Answered by attorney Jayne L. Sebby (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Jayne L. Sebby
You only have to complete the ceremony and sign the marriage certificate to be considered a spouse. If your father-in-law has a will, the terms of that document will determine who inherit which parts of his estate. If he doesn't have a will, the state's intestacy laws will control. Furthermore, the title on things like property deeds, insurance policies, and bank accounts may impact who gets those items. Many states allow a surviving spouse at least some portion of the estate but it may not be very much.

Does it cost money to put a beneficiary's name on a property? How?

Estate Planning lawyer at Probate Law Center Richard J. Keyes, PC
I am assuming in this case that you are talking about real estate and a beneficiary deed. There is a price for recording a beneficiary deed with the recorder of deeds and please note that a beneficiary deed needs to be recorded prior to the grantor's death. There is also the cost of the preparation of the beneficiary deed. Contact an attorney in regard to prices.

What can I do if I am ready to retire at 62?

As long as you have been married for more than 10 years, you can collect on his SS, whether you are married or not. You should meet with a financial advisor to make sure that it makes sense to do this.
