How to complete it

  2. Fill in the names (Page 1) Enter your name as agent and the principal’s name exactly as they appear in the power of attorney.
  3. Attach a copy Attach a true copy of the power of attorney. The certification refers to “the attached” copy.
  4. Sign before a notary (Page 1) You sign under penalty of perjury. Banks and title companies usually want the signature sworn before a notary. Bring a current, government-issued photo ID.
