A power of attorney (POA) is a legal document that allows you (the “principal”) to appoint any individual (the “agent” or “attorney-in-fact”) to manage your financial, medical, or other legal affairs.

Power of attorney laws vary by state. So, you need to download the power of attorney form specific to South Dakota (SD).

There are different types of power of attorney, so the form you need depends on what the POA is for and when the POA is effective.
