    Documents like SSN cards, passports, birth certificates, titles, etc can be a huge pain in the ass to replace.

    If you don’t already, consider getting a box or folder ready to go in an accessible place to grab in case you have to evacuate.

      Not that hard to replace. I had to get a new birth cert from Australia and All i had to do was fill 8lin my name, date of birth, place of birth, my parents names, and siblings. 3 weeks later my cert arrived in Europe.

        That’s for sure, there is no interest to anyone that you go around without documents. And documents with moneys interest usually have even five copies around the offices and databases. In an house burning saving documents to me looks insane, even cringe in this modern society.
