Checklists for the paperwork families put off
Free to print, nothing to sign up for. Start with the moment you are in: helping a parent, getting your own affairs in order, or a day you could not plan for.
Helping a parent
Your own affairs
- Getting your affairs in order The decisions and documents to settle now, while it is calm and up to you.
- What your family needs to find A single page pointing to where everything lives, so no one has to go hunting.
- What to put in your in-case-of-death file Everything to gather in one place your family can turn to.
- Passwords and digital accounts to record The logins and legacy settings to note before anyone is locked out.
- Which documents to keep, and what you can shred What to keep forever, what to keep a while, and what is safe to toss.
- Home inventory for insurance A room-by-room list that settles a claim faster, and for more.
- Documents to update after a move, marriage, or baby The paperwork each life change quietly sets off.
Emergencies and after a death
- What the hospital needs in an emergency The few things staff and family need fast. Ready before, not during.
- What to do when someone dies The first days, the first weeks, and what can safely wait.
- The executor’s checklist: settling an estate An executor’s duties from the first weeks through closing, in order.
Every list is yours to print and keep. When you want it all in one place your family can reach, that is what MyLifePapers is for.
