Hi everything changes when they become an adult I would strongly advise you to apply for a deputyship for property and finance and health and well-being on line on the gov.U.K. Website if your daughter lacks mental capacity.
Hi JofisherThank you so much you always help me please let me know how much cost it is able to do online please if you got a link can you send me please thank you so much God bless you
Hi, sorry to hear that you have encountered these problems.
My daughter is non verbal and over 18. I had to apply to the Court of Protection for a Deputyship Order to speak on her behalf. This was supposed with a mental capacity assessment from her doctor to prove that she lacked capacity to handle her own affairs.
My son is 23. I act for him for benefits and all health matters . I sign all paperwork etc on his behalf. I don’t have deputyship. I just explain the situation to them and they speak to me. I’ve never had an issue.
Also if she has no money other than benefits you do not need Deputyship for finances.
Hi BenjiBThanks for sharing with us yes I do same thing like you but sometime when you call to office people depend on people nature normally no problem but last time when I spoke to NHS they said I need to speak to your daughter when I calling after a couple day than one person able to speak to me always different nature people some people understand the situation some people don’t thank you so much sharing with us take care
