BECAUSE YOUR HEALTH AND TIME MATTERS

LPA Certification for Donors

1) Choose Your Donee(s)

A donee is someone who will make your decisions for you. Choose someone you trust to be your donee, and choose what decision powers to grant them. They may act jointly, or jointly and severally.

2) See a Certificate Issuer

A Certificate Issuer (CI) is either an accredited medical practitioner, a practicing lawyer, or a registered psychiatrist. The CI will ensure that you understand the purpose of the LPA and the powers given.

3) Submit Your LPA

Mail a copy of your LPA Form to the Office of Public Guardian (OPG). OPG will verify your documents and accepts your LPA for registration.

4) View/Share LPA

OPG’s e-services portal can be accessed here via SingPass login. Donors and donees of LPAs will be able to access a PDF soft-copy of their registered LPA.

Our doctor will assist you to complete the rest of the form or address missing fields.

Importance of LPA:

Why now? Can’t it wait?

The importance of making LPA when you are mentally sound is to reduce the stress of your loved ones to handle personal affairs, treatment decisions as well as property affairs on your behalf.

If an LPA is not made in advance, and capacity of an individual is lost, the affected relatives may need to present to court to be appointed as a deputy for the said individual.

The fees to hire a lawyer to apply to be appointed as a deputy would cost around $3000 to $10000.
