There are different types of access to suit your needs. See what is available to you and what it means below.
If you want someone to look after your financial affairs, you can give them a General Power of Attorney (GPA). You might choose this option if you have a physical illness, injury, or are abroad for a long period.
You should not use this if you have been diagnosed with or think you may develop a mental health condition or disease which can lead to mental incapacity. This is because a GPA does not continue if you lose your mental capacity.

This option will allow someone to help manage your finances including your bank accounts, either before or after you lose mental capacity.
It’s possible that before 1 October 2007 you made an Enduring Power of Attorney (EPA), allowing someone to manage your property or financial affairs but not your personal welfare. This would allow your attorney to look after your affairs if you still had mental capacity and, if it was registered, could also continue if you lost your mental capacity.
It’s no longer possible to make a new EPA (except in Northern Ireland). However, one can still be registered if it was made before 1 October 2007 and is still valid.
If the EPA hasn’t been registered, and you lose your mental capacity, your attorney can apply to continue using the EPA by registering it with the Office of the Public Guardian. There is a registration fee which you can get further advice and information on from the Office of the Public Guardian.

A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) allows someone to look after your affairs but is different to a General/Ordinary Power of Attorney as it can include your personal welfare as well as your property and financial affairs.
You could make an LPA if you have been diagnosed with, or think you may develop, an illness which may prevent you from making decisions for yourself in the future, such as dementia, mental health conditions, brain injury, side-effects of medical treatment or other illness or disability.
You must make an LPA while you are still capable of making decisions for yourself. This type of Power of Attorney has to be registered with the Office of the Public Guardian before you can use it. There is a registration fee which you can get further advice and information on from the Office of the Public Guardian.

If you lose mental capacity and have not previously made, or are no longer capable of making, a Power of Attorney arrangement, the Court of Protection can decide who can handle your affairs. Usually a trusted close friend, family member or someone else can apply for a Court Order to appoint a Deputy for you. The Court Order will set out what decisions the Deputy can make on your behalf.

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) can appoint someone to act on behalf of a person receiving state benefits who cannot manage their benefit related affairs because they have a physical disability or do not have mental capacity.
The DWP will issue an Appointee with a BF57 form to confirm their appointment. This document should be presented along with suitable identification to register the Appointeeship with us. A new account is opened in the name of the account holder. A debit/ATM card is available on this account on request.
An Appointee only has authority to manage the benefit payments on the designated account opened. If the Appointee needs to manage other finances they will need to seek advice on other options which would be more suitable, such as Power of Attorney or Deputyship Order.

A Continuing Power of Attorney (CPA) allows someone to take care of your day-to-day finances and, depending on the wording in the document, to pay bills, look after bank accounts, collect benefits and buy or sell property. These powers can be used when you (the granter) still have mental and/or physical capacity and will continue if you are no longer able to manage your own affairs. The CPA must be made by you and you can choose whether the attorney has access immediately or not. It can specify that it can only be used when you are no longer capable of managing your own affairs.
We will accept a CPA on your behalf as long as the wording in the document gives the attorney the power to manage your finances. The CPA must be registered before it can be used and there is a registration fee which you can find more about from the Office of the Public Guardian.

In Northern Ireland you can make a new Enduring Power of Attorney (EPA), which allows someone to manage your property or financial affairs but not your personal welfare. This would allow your attorney to look after your affairs if you still had mental capacity and, if it was registered, could also continue if you lost your mental capacity.
If the EPA hasn’t been registered, and you lose your mental capacity, your attorney can apply to continue using the EPA by registering it with the Office of Care and Protection. There is a registration fee which you can get further advice and information on from the Office of Care and Protection.

The Court Order will set out what decisions the Controller can make on your behalf.
