What is included in the Alberta Estate Planning Package?

1. Alberta Enduring Power of Attorney

An Enduring Power of Attorney allows you to appoint a trusted person (your attorney) to manage your financial and property matters if you are unable or choose not to manage them yourself.

This document can help ensure that someone you trust has the authority to handle important financial and legal matters, including:

• Managing bank accounts and investments
• Paying bills and expenses
• Handling real estate and property matters
• Managing business and financial transactions
• Dealing with government agencies and other organizations

An Enduring Power of Attorney is an important part of an Alberta estate plan because it allows you to choose who will act on your behalf rather than leaving decisions to be made without your input.

2. Alberta Revocation of Power of Attorney Form

This Revocation of Power of Attorney form allows you to formally cancel a previously granted Power of Attorney.

Use this document when you want to terminate an existing appointment and no longer wish the named attorney to have authority to act on your behalf.

3. Alberta Personal Directive

An Alberta Personal Directive allows you to provide instructions about your personal care and health care decisions and appoint someone you trust to make decisions for you if you become unable to communicate or make those decisions yourself.

Your Personal Directive can address important personal matters, including:

• Medical treatment preferences
• Health care decisions
• Living arrangements
• Personal care choices
• Appointment of a decision-maker (agent)

A Personal Directive is a key part of future planning because it ensures that someone you choose can make personal decisions according to your wishes.

4. Legal Will Kit for Canada (Including Alberta Requirements)

This comprehensive Canadian Legal Will Kit provides the information, instructions, and forms needed to prepare your own legally structured will.

The Canadian Will Kit package includes:

• A customizable Last Will and Testament template
• Step-by-step information and instructions
• Guidance to help you complete your will correctly
• Alberta Affidavit of Witness of a Will form
• Comprehensive estate planning questionnaire

Creating a will allows you to:

• Decide how your property and assets will be distributed
• Name beneficiaries
• Appoint an executor to administer your estate
• Provide instructions regarding your final wishes
• Help reduce uncertainty and stress for your family

5. Alberta Codicil to Will

An Alberta Codicil to Will allows you to make certain changes or additions to an existing will without preparing an entirely new document.

A codicil may be useful when you need to update your estate plan because of changes such as:

• Adding or removing a beneficiary
• Changing an executor
• Updating specific gifts or instructions
• Reflecting changes in your personal circumstances

Why do you need an Alberta estate plan?

Many people put off estate planning because they assume it is only necessary for older adults or people with significant assets. In reality, every adult can benefit from having documents that explain their wishes and appoint trusted decision-makers.

Without proper planning, your family may face additional stress, delays, or uncertainty when dealing with your financial affairs, health care decisions, or estate administration.

A complete Alberta estate plan can help you:

• Protect your family and loved ones
• Maintain control over important decisions
• Choose who manages your affairs if you cannot
• Clearly communicate your wishes
• Make future decisions easier for those close to you
