Booklet Tells Which Records Are Important Do you find that every time you open a drawer at home, more envelopes of cancelled checks and papers you’ve saved fall out to greet you? You're probably beginning to wonder what you can throw out safely and w hat you need to hang onto. Here's help from the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Keeping Records. What to Discard, is a free pamphlet that's true to its title. For your copy of Keeping Records. What to Discard, just send a postcard to the Consumer Information Cen ter. Dept. 625 E. Pueblo, Colorado 81009. First of all. you don’t need to keep all cancelled checks. It’s important to keep the checks and receipts that may be needed for income tax purposes. The Internal Re venue Service has three years in which to audit Federal income tax returns. However, this limit doesn't apply in unusual cases. If you failed to report more than 25 percent of your gross income, the government has 5 years to collect the tax or start legal proceedings. There are also no time limits if you filed a s proved) fraudulent return or if you failed to file a return. Time limits for State income taxes vary, so you'll want to find out w hat the law says in your State. Its important to keep your irreplaceable papers in your safe deposit box—they in clude marriage and birth certificates, divorce and adoption papers, citizenship records, service papers, and *.* *■ ’'ll ■.

What you DON’T need to keep in a safe deposit box are income tax returns, educa tion records, employment records, bank books, social security cards, guarantees, burial instructions, or old love letters. Remember that copies of some things can be replaced rather easily—co pies of insurance policies can be obtained from your insurance companies. Copies of cancelled checks are usually available at your bank The original copy of a will is usually kept in the safe of the attorney who prepared it. This can save you complica tions later on. The client receives the two carbon copies, one of which may be put in the safe deposit box. Since there could be a legal delay in getting this copy after the death of the person involved, the third copy should be kept at home where it is readily accessible. One very important record is your household inventory. For this to be of value in case of fire or burglary, you'll need to supply some detail. Be sure to list the item, date bought, purchase price, model number if it applies, brand name, dealer's name and general description. Some families take pictures of their rooms to help identify possessions. Keep this docu ment in your safe deposit box too. give a copy to your insurance company and keep one at home. Keeping Records.
