Could your household find the important stuff quickly?

What's inside the free PDF

Important Documents Checklist

A simple starter list for IDs, medical info, insurance, financial accounts, home records, vehicle records, emergency contacts, and storage locations.

Where to Find It Worksheet

A fill-in worksheet for recording where things are stored — physical copies, digital copies, who knows where they are, and when they were last reviewed.

Passwords & Digital Access

A safer way to organize access information: record where passwords are stored, not the passwords themselves. Includes primary email, recovery methods, and trusted-person notes.

Family Photos & Digital Files

A plain-English digital safety section for photo backups, phone/computer backups, cloud photo accounts, important digital files, subscriptions, and old devices.

Simple Update Routine

A light routine for first setup, monthly check-ins, twice-yearly reviews, and major life changes.

Useful without storing sensitive details

This checklist is for recording where important information is kept, not for writing private details directly on the page. Do not write passwords, account balances, Social Security numbers, or other sensitive details into the worksheet. For passwords, note where your password manager or password record is stored.
