Never, never never do that (in California). You only put the name of the person appearing in front of you. That's it. That's who you are IDing.
Nothing more. Representative capacities are a strict no-no in California and you could be in big trouble if you do that. Also, you should not ask to see the Power of attorney to verify that they can sign as AIF, either. That would be "determining" capacity and another big no-no. If the wife claims capacity, that' what she claims. You are IDing her, and that's all. |
