Making a Guardianship or Trusteeship application can be challenging. The paperwork is extensive and can appear complicated. To begin the process, a Capacity Assessment Report must be obtained for the adult and the contact information of the applicant(s) and the adult’s immediate family should be retrieved.
For a Trusteeship application, the financial records for the adult should be collected. There will be scenarios when this information is not accessible until after the Trusteeship order is obtained but, if possible, it is more efficient to include this information in the initial application.
