Estate Planning Checklist
The Estate Planning Checklist allows you to gather, organize, and maintain an inventory of your most important documents. Using the checklist will give you a clear understanding of the documents you have—and even more importantly, the documents you’re missing.
To get started, spend a few minutes each day going over the list to locate the documents you have and the ones you still need.
If you’re missing any of the important documents on the list, make an appointment to see an estate attorney and/or make arrangements to get copies of any missing vital documents, such as birth, death, marriage, or divorce certificates.
Go to vital documents and then select the state in which the event occurred to find out how to get the missing documents.
Once you’ve completed the Estate Planning Checklist, you can rest assured that any important paperwork you’ll need in the event of an emergency or death is right at your fingertips. After all, “never” happens all the time—as State Farm’s tagline points out—and isn’t that the truth?
