These documents are essential in not only identifying WHO can make decisions on your behalf, but also WHEN the substitute decision maker can start making decisions. 

The POA Registry is able to safely store and provide access to almost all substitute decision-making documents for all provinces and territories. If your business/organization does not know if a document exists, uploading and searching documents will help identify substitute decision makers through the combined power of multiple databases.

Once a substitute decision-making document is uploaded to the Registry, stakeholders will be provided with a certificate that allows them to easily find and access the document, thus reducing the amount of counterfeit documents.
