SAFEGUARD IMPORTANT RECORDS

With the frequent occurrence of natural disasters, the IRS has issued a reminder to taxpayers to safeguard their records with a document backup plan. Backup records should be stored away from the original set. The IRS News Release suggests scanning original records and storing them in the cloud or on storage devices. Individuals should consider taking photos of their home's contents, especially high-value items, to use for insurance or casualty loss claims.
