I am 16 and need help with moving to north carolina.

Question

i am 16 and live in new york. i am extremely unhappy and spent the summer with my aunt in north carolina. both she and my parents agreed that i could go live with her however the school there says that she needs to be my legal guardian in order for me to go there. how long would it take to have her become my legal guardian and how much would it cost? i am also wondering if it would be easier to be emancipated???

Answer 1

Your parents can sign a power of attorney over to your aunt and it would only take a short time, emancipation would require filing and appearing in court, there are power of attorney forms available free on line and they can also sign a medical power of attorney over to your aunt so that she could authorize medical treatment.~
