What a guardianship plan in Ontario asks for — and how to autofill Form 3 with my-id.ca
Prepare a guardianship plan without retyping your details
Applying to be a guardian of the person or property requires a plan for how you will care for the incapable person — and the plan repeats your name, address, and the person's details. This guide is an example of storing them once in my-id.ca.
Official form and source
Start from the official source and always use the current version — form numbers and links can change:
