FAQ
Addressing your concerns
We address general and common question that you may have. If you require more guidance, please reach out to our team.
An LPA (Lasting Power of Attorney) is an essential part of your estate planning. It allows you to appoint someone—your Donee—to make critical decisions on your behalf if you lose mental capacity. These decisions can cover both personal welfare and financial matters, providing you with peace of mind that your interests are safeguarded.
Your Donee should be someone you trust deeply, as they will have authority over important decisions in situations where you cannot make them yourself. Many people choose close family members or trusted friends, but it is essential to select someone who has the capability and/or capacity (especially to manage your assets) to make these decisions on your behalf.
An LPA grants your Donee authority over two main areas:
- Personal Welfare:Â This includes decisions related to your healthcare, daily living arrangements, and medical treatment if you're unable to make these decisions yourself.
- Property & Affairs:Â This covers financial matters such as managing your bank accounts, handling investments, and paying bills on your behalf.
These powers can be tailored to your preferences, allowing you to specify exactly which decisions your Donee can make, providing flexibility and control over your future planning.
The two forms cater to different levels of customization:
Form 1: This is the standard LPA form used by most people. It allows you to grant your Donee(s) general powers over your personal welfare and property and affairs. It’s straightforward and suitable for those who don’t require detailed customization.
Form 2:Â This form is for those who need a more customized arrangement. It allows you to specify detailed powers and instructions for your Donee(s) and requires a lawyer to draft it. Form 2 is ideal if you have complex needs or specific instructions you want your Donee(s) to follow.
Yes definitely, both an LPA and a Will are critical, but they serve different purposes. An LPA is effective while you are alive but mentally incapacitated, ensuring someone can manage your affairs if necessary. A Will, on the other hand, only takes effect after your passing, guiding how your assets and belongings are distributed. Both are essential parts of a comprehensive estate plan.
This campaign is open to Singaporean healthcare workers at just $7. PRs are also eligible, though there may be additional costs associated with the certification process. For more details, reach out to our team for specific guidance.
