From a POA statement - Portuguese from Portugal. Struggling with the standalone term "levantar" in this sentence about the activities the person is giving permission to be done on her behalf:
"para o representar perante quaisquer entidades públicas ou administrativas, nomeadamente, apresentar e pedir documentos, fazer declarações, levantar, fazer participações, reclamações ou impugnações judiciais, assinar e praticar tudo o mais que se torne necessário e acessório aos indicados fins.
"para o representar perante quaisquer entidades públicas ou administrativas, nomeadamente, apresentar e pedir documentos, fazer declarações, levantar, fazer participações, reclamações ou impugnações judiciais, assinar e praticar tudo o mais que se torne necessário e acessório aos indicados fins.

@Jack, I am not sure, particularly because this is Brazilian Portuguese and the word is not "accompanied" by any other reference, but maybe this helps:
11. Fazer lista ou rol, arrolar (dados, informações etc.) para pesquisa ou a partir de pesquisa [td. : levantar informações.]

Example sentence:
Authorization sample letter to collect a document.
An authorization letter to collect a document is practically delegating to someone the responsibility of collecting the document,
Note from asker:
| Thanks for the suggestion Ana, if it was "collect documents, would it not be joined to the part about documents, "apresentar, pedir e levantar documentos" ? |
