Appointment of a guardian and/or financial manager

Anyone with a genuine concern for the welfare of a person with impaired decision making can make an application to the Guardianship Division of the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal (formerly known as the Guardianship Tribunal). You should contact the tribunal directly before making an application. You can also contact us for general information about this process.

The forms to apply for guardianship and/or financial management can be downloaded from the NCAT website above.
