Idaho power of attorney is transferable by form to enable a state resident (the principal) to assign an agent to represent them. This representation can be for a specific task such as registering a vehicle or filing one’s taxes, or it can be a general representation that enables the selected individual to make financial or healthcare decisions on the resident’s behalf. If the power of attorney is durable, it will sustain the principal’s incapacitation, enabling the agent to act despite the principal being unable to decide for themselves. The type of form chosen will dictate the scope of the authority and the type of decisions the agent will be able to carry out.
