Power of Attorney (Financial) in Idaho
A financial power of attorney lets you name an agent to handle money and property for you. Many states have their own statutory form and signing rules (notary, witnesses), and banks often ask for that form. Check your state's rules below; if your state has a statutory form, use it.
What Idaho law says
| Power of attorney signing rules | Idaho adopted the Uniform Power of Attorney Act (Idaho Code title 15, chapter 12), which includes an 'Idaho Statutory Form Power of Attorney.' The power of attorney must be signed by the principal (or by someone at the principal's direction in the principal's conscious presence). Notarization is not strictly required, but a signature acknowledged before a notary is presumed genuine. It is durable unless it expressly says it ends on incapacity. Statutory form: https://legislature.idaho.gov/statutesrules/idstat/Title15/T15CH12/SECT15-12-301/. |
