Filing a tax return on someone's behalf

[jlijli]

Hello,
My dad has alzheimer's and I am his power of attorney . Can I use Ufile to file a tax return on his behalf? Thank you.

Hello jlijli,

Yes.

In UFile select  >> Specific Situations >> Legal representative or guardian -->

  >>

A guardian is a person who looks after and is legally responsible for someone who is unable to manage their own affairs, especially an incompetent or disabled person or a child whose parents have died.

 

 

Is there a guardian or legal representative person to whom the taxpayer gave power of attorney?  Yes  No

Thanks so much. That's very helpful!

I'm not an expert, but I went through a similar situation with my mom. It's commendable that you're taking care of your dad's affairs. You might want to consult with a tax professional or the Ufile support team to ensure everything is done correctly. They should be able to guide you through the process and address any specific concerns related to filing on behalf of someone with Alzheimer's. Btw do you guys know any good lawyers? My friend advised me to check out https://federal-lawyer.com/whistleblower-lawyers/healthcare/, and I'm curious If any of you worked with them. Take care!
