Pre-Planning Your Overseas Move

LEGAL AFFAIRS
Depending on your own particular circumstances.... before you go...
  • Arrange for power of attorney for your affairs during your absence.
  • Be sure your will, and that of your spouse, is up-to-date.
  • Appoint a legal guardian for your children in case circumstances deprive them of your care.
  • Reserve a safe deposit box at your bank as a depository for important documents and other valuables you don’t want to take with you.
  • Check the contents of your safe deposit box; arrange to leave the key with a responsible person - your lawyer, executor of your estate, person to whom you have given power of attorney.
  • Have copies made of all valuable and legal documents you are taking with you birth and marriage certificates, letters of credit, bank drafts and Social Security records, children’s school records and so on. Keep them in your safe deposit box.
  • Keep a record of all insurance policies - life, accident, medical, homeowner’s, fire, theft, auto - with your other documents.
