Documents you need in case of an emergency!!!
July 30th, 2008 Categories: City News
In light of yesterday’s ‘rumble’, I thought I’d urge everyone to put together an Emergency Kit. Of course you need the necessary supplies to survive, but don’t forget the necessary documents to rebuild your life. Radio journalist, Pete Demetriou put together this comprehensive list for the LA Fire Asst. Chief Craig Fry.
THE ONE ENVELOPE TO REBUILD YOUR LIFE
Documents to Have in the Event of Evacuation.
or (The One Envelope to rebuild your Life)
Personal Information
(All Copies should be in Color)
Copy of Birth Certificate
Copy of Social Security Card
Copy of Driver’s license
Copy of US Passport
Financial Information
(Including institution, account numbers, passwords, etc)
Checking Accounts
Savings Accounts
Money Market Accounts
Retirement Funds
Stocks
Bonds
(Annual Reports from Stock Brokers are also fine)
Credit Card Information
A photocopy of each credit card
and on attached sheet, include:
Name as listed on account
Account number
CCV number from back of card
Expiration date,
Card Company’s toll free number
Other Necessary Documents
Copy of recent tax documents
(include paper and or CD copy of State and Federal for past 2 years)
Copy of Property Tax Bill
Title Documents for Home.
Copy of Auto Title (Pink Slip or Bank Lien)
Documents related to Wills, Trusts, Durable Power of Attorney, Medical Directives
Copies of insurance policies (life, health, home, car)
(including the contact information - phones and or websites - of the Carriers)
Safety Deposit Box information, copy of key
A short (10 numbers at most) list of emergency phone numbers of
Relatives or Critical Personnel
Make three copies of the above documents
*One in the Home in a secure location.
*One in a local Bank Safety Deposit Box.
*One in an out of State Bank Safety Deposit Box.
(Las Vegas, Nevada is a good option)
In the Home Copy, include a packet of cash for travel or other needs.
For 2 people…it should be roughly $500 dollars (10, $20’s, 10, $10’s,
20 $5’s and 100, $1.00’s. NO $50’s or $100’s) to last for 48 to 96 Hours.
Be safe…Be well.
