Consider the following risks before you embrace joint tenancy as a planning tool. Loss of control. Exposure to creditor claims. Unexpected tax consequences. Strained relationships. Lose use of testamentary trusts.
One of the main disadvantages is that an asset that could typically pass directly to persons outside of probate may now become an asset that has to be addressed through the probate process.
With a joint account, the joint account holder has the right to deposit or withdraw money from the account both during your lifetime, and after your death. With a P.O.D., the beneficiary does not have those same rights.
Cons of Payable on Death Accounts Another con is that you might not be able to change the beneficiary of a POD account once you name someone. So if they pass away before you do and there are no other beneficiaries named to follow after them, the account would be subject to the normal probate process.
