KEEPING FAMILY/HOUSEHOLD RECORDS

When was the last time you couldn’t find an important paper you knew you had carefully put away someplace?  How much time do you spend trying to straighten out your household business affairs, especially at income tax time?
How in fact do people decide what records are important to keep and what they can discard? How do they decide where to store and keep such records and papers?
“Keeping Family/Household Records” is an online publication offered by the Federal Citizens Information Center of the General Services Administration as a public service.  This publication provides valuable information in answer to the above questions.  In addition it covers record storage, inventory records, net worth statements and much more.
