New Yorks new POA law requires that the principals signature be docHubd in addition to the POA being signed with two witnesses present (note that the notary can be one of your witnesses).
1 Answer. A power of attorney can be signed and docHubd anywhere. It is better if it conforms to the requirements of the state in which the principal (the person granting the power) lives. But it does not have to be signed in that state, although it often is.
In New York, you must docHub the POA and also have it witnessed by two people who arent named in the POA as agents. The notary public can serve as a witness, so you might need to find only one more witness.
Make sure your agent is provided a duplicate original of your health care proxy and knows of any specific wishes with regard to your care. Unlike wills, you can do several duplicate original health care proxies so that your agent(s), successor agent(s) and others close to you will be able to find it in an emergency.
