The Alaska State Tax Power of Attorney, also known as “Form 774”, allows a resident to elect someone else to file taxes and make payments on their behalf. Often, this is utilized when a client would like their accountant or attorney to handle certain liabilities surrounding the money owed to the local government at the end of the year. The form requests specific info pertaining to the identification of both parties, the types of taxes being managed, and any restrictions of power. Once the principal has customized the document, it may then be signed by the taxpayer and their representative(s) to conclude the transference of authority.
