As long as you have power of attorney then legally you can file an assignment into bankruptcy in her name. The only real difference is that you will have to provide the trustee with a copy of the power of attorney.

You may also want to discuss with the trustee the possibility of obtaining permission from the superintendent of bankruptcy to waive the required counselling sessions due to your mothers circumstances.
