This package contains the following documents:

Who can use this Estate Planning Package?

The forms can be used by more than one person in your household, so you and your spouse / partner can both make your will and power of attorney from the same templates.

Why do you need to prepare an estate plan?

Without a plan, a provincial or territorial court will decide who distributes your estate, and the laws of succession will dictate how and to whom your estate assets are distributed.

When you make a will, a power of attorney, and a personal directive, the decisions are yours. For example,:

• You decide how your estate is divided and distributed.
• You name who will manage your estate.
• You decide who will act as guardian for minor children or dependents (as applicable).
• You decide who will pay your bills and manage your finances if you become incapable.
• You decide who will make medical and lifestyle choices for you if you cannot make those choices yourself.
• You can implement strategies to reduce probate fees and capital gains tax on your assets, such as setting up a trust.

Features of the Templates

• Each document in the Estate Planning Package comes with instructions to guide you through it.
• All documents are provided in MS Word format and are fully editable and reusable.
• The documents are compiled into a .zip file for easy downloading and extraction.
• These Estate Planning Package forms are compliant with Canadian tax laws and the laws of Yukon Territory.
