Estate planning for foster children requires specific legal steps because, in the UK, they do not automatically have the same inheritance rights as biological or legally adopted children.
If you do not have a Will, foster children do not have automatic inheritance rights like biological or adopted children. If you want to make provision for a foster child(ren), you should do this in your Will.
It depends on how many children you are currently or have formerly fostered and how many you want to make provision for. You may also want to make provision for formerly fostered children.
Absolutely. It's important so the financial wellbeing of the foster children are catered for pending a decision whether you are able to continue to foster them so a power of attorney is incredibly important.
