Common Questions
-
A POA is a legal document that appoints another person to manage your affairs and act on your behalf. This may include handling your financial/legal matters, medical/health care matters and/or lifestyle/personal matters. Personal matters include very intimate choices about things like where you live and what you wear and eat.
The person you appoint is called an 'Attorney.' This is an expression and it does not mean that the person is a Lawyer or Solicitor.
A Power of Attorney is a powerful document. You should think carefully about the decisions you are allowing another person to make and ensure that you trust the person you are appointing as your Attorney.
-
There are 2 different types of Powers of Attorney, a General Power of Attorney and an Enduring Power of Attorney:
A General Power of Attorney is used to appoint someone to make your financial/legal decisions but stops if you have impaired decision making ability.
An Enduring Power of Attorney is used for financial/legal, personal or medical decisions and continues to operate if you have impaired decision making ability. In some states and territories, you many need to appoint an enduring guardian to take care of your personal or medical affairs.
-
In some circumstances, you can have someone sign on your behalf, though there are special rules that apply, depending on the state where you live. The forms include this provision if needed. However, the witness must be satisfied that the person making the Power of Attorney understands the effect of the document they are signing.
A Power of Attorney is a powerful document. You are giving someone the power to deal with important matters on your behalf, such as transferring property or making life-changing decisions about your medical treatment. You should understand the powerful nature of this document and the effect that it has.
-
This will depend on the specific wishes stated in the Enduring POA. It may also depend on the law in your state. For example, in South Australia, an Enduring POA has now been replaced by an Advance Personal Plan.
-
In general, yes. You can appoint more than one person if you wish. You can appoint each person to make decisions about separate matters (“severally”) or about all matters for which they will need to agree (“jointly”). However, in some states, you can only appoint one person to make decisions about medical treatment.
-
No. The power automatically cancels when you lose your decision-making ability. An Enduring POA operates when you can't make decisions for yourself.
