How do I set up an Authority to sign cheques and debits on my elderly mothers bank account. Arthritis means that she often cannot hold apen, and this condition is getting worse.
Usually banks have a standard form for this and the account holders signature is witnessed by a bank official. Obviously the person should be fully aware of what they are doing and one needs to be careful to keep records because quite frankly in the case of death some beneficiary may question some of the drawings on the account.
