Do you want to give your wife a POA? Or does she want to give you a POA?

.

What type? Medical? Financial?

Customer
TRICARE FOR LIFE

Barrister, Expert

A POA is a power of attorney to give the holder the right to do something on behalf of the grantor..

.

Not sure what TRICARE FOR LIFE means?

img

Barrister, Expert

But if you want to give your spouse a POA, either financial or medical, you just complete a POA form, sign it in front of a notary public, and then give the completed form to your spouse.

.

Then she can make any financial decisions for you if you can't do so.. or if it is a medical POA, she can make medical decisions for you if you are unable to make them.
