in today’s time and age, whether or not put into the wrong hands, your impertinent and personal records may be applied for all kinds of intents. Identity theft has become a huge issue these days, and it is in your best intentness and interest that you keep yours in a safe and secure place.
some of the most valued “records” that you have are in all likelihood impertinent and personal letters, photographs, and such mementos as newspaper clippings, diplomas, and graduation programs. Do not feel guilty about saving these, but don’t be overly sneering and sentimental either – throw out the bits and scraps that will mean small as time passes.
here are three tips to percentage with you on in which way to manage your impertinent and personal records:
1) to defend these mementos from fire or flood and to keep them all in one place as well, store them in a metal strongbox or a small footlocker.
2) assure you have copies of all birth, marriage, divorce, and death certificates. These records are filed permanently either in a state constructive and vital statistics office or in a city, county, or other local office.
3) to get copies of a birth certificate, write to the fitting and appropriate office of the capital of the state where the birth took place. The office may be listed in the phone book under “vital statistics” or “health department”. It may even be listed under “birth certificates” in a quick allusion list of state of local government offices.
besides your own impertinent and personal records in a box that may withstand fire and water, you should consider having a dominant and permanent file as well. This file should contain the deed to your home, your mortgage agreement, and other papers from the closing – suchlike surveys and title warrantees.
