Use the Utah Courts statutory form

Utah’s six-page court form covers selected financial and property decisions and includes important information for both principal and agent. Its revision references Utah’s recodified statute. Read the financial subjects and designation sections before completing the blanks. Use a separate advance health care directive for treatment decisions.

Decide general and specific authority

Initial the general subjects you want the agent to handle, and review the distinct specific-authority choices. Gifts, beneficiary changes, trust actions and similar powers can alter important financial arrangements. Use the special-instructions section for limits and conditions; naming someone you trust does not remove the need to define the job.

Review the start and complete the packet

The printed form begins immediately unless special instructions change the start. Consider successor agents and whether any co-agents must act together. Complete the principal’s signature and acknowledgment and retain the agent-duty pages. Give the agent and relevant institutions complete copies, and explain any conditions that must be satisfied before acting.

Common questions

Is the financial form the same as Utah’s 2026 health directive?

No. They address different subjects and follow different statutes. The financial court form was revised for the 2024 recodification; health planning uses a separate current directive.

May I omit the agent-duty pages?

Keep them with the complete document. They explain responsibilities such as staying within authority and maintaining records and can help the agent understand the appointment.
