I have almost screamed some days. I have had to fax my POA to more places that the law allows and then they don't like to accept them. I have had to keep reminding myself that these folks are just doing their job but they really make me want to scream. It has been so all consuming!

I would think a copy of her drivers license would work if you are converting a custodial account to a single account. If it is a 529, it is going to be whatever the company where it is held requires, but that is usually a copy of the drivers license also. Be patient with them....I'm sure they are really trying to help you.

Not a big deal if one kid is in Journalism, but a big deal if one kid wants to be a Pharmacist. Sigh. I came close to going to their pediatrician -- in Missouri -- (3 moves ago).
