Q: I have POA for my granddaughter from the state of Texas. My granddaughter and I recently moved to Ohio (West Carrollton)
West Carrollton school would not allow registration because it was not an Ohio POA. My daughter (childs mother) resides in Texas. How do I get POA notorized if the parent is in Texas and I reside in Ohio?. Only form I can find for Grandparent POA states that the parent and the grandparent (I would serve as attorney in fact) must both be present to have form notorized. How can I accomplish this... My granddaughter must be enrolled in school here soon.
A: Both need not be present. Obtain an Ohio form, send it to her in TX to be signed and notarized there. It should be valid in OH, but it depends on what the school requires.
