If it is hers you better make sure that it is legal for you not to tell her. Waiting to get that may not be worth it if you are required to disclose that.
Courts can see omission in a bad light. Not saying you are doing anything wrong, just saying be sure.
It's public record. She could go online and find it if she wanted to. I have no duty to tell her. I just happened to find it myself by putting in names on the database. She can get it anytime she wants as well, just apply for it. Prove you are the direct person for it and they hand it over. It's not like you have to go to court for it.
Ok. Got it. As long as you are CYA you are all good.

It is where you declare what you want to happen in case you are in a medical state where you cant make decisions and give that decision making over to a family member or friend. It lets the doctor/family/courts know who is in charge, and you also declare if you want life saving measures if you are terminal, to be kept alive, or not. DNR means "Do not resuscitate". You give a DNR order if you don't want to be kept alive in case of terminal or vegetative state. It also tells people what is to be done with your body when you die.
Living wills not only protect your wishes. It can also prevent fights between family and friends, and even false accusations in court cases. Living wills, even if you don't have tons of assets are very important.
In my living will I declared that I do not want to be kept alive in case of terminal illness or vegetative state. I gave power of attorney to my friend John in case I am in a medical state I cant make medical decisions. I also declared to have my body donated to science when I die.
