<p>Has the pending tax season motivated you to organize all of your important documents along with the financial ones?  This is the perfect opportunity to start some new filing habits and protect or replace any missing papers, credentials and forms.  Can you easily find your passport? What about your birth certificate?  Are you sure you know where you put that lease agreement?  I recently found an article in <em>Real Simple </em>magazine that gives great advice on <a href="http://www.realsimple.com/home-organizing/organizing/record-keeping/replace-store-important-documents-00000000024744/print-index.html">how to get copies</a> of critical documents.</p>
<p>Also, refer to my previous blog post <a href="http://blog.innovativelyorganized.com/2010/01/18/multiple-ways-to-file-paper/">Multiple Ways to File Paper</a> for more organizing tips.</p>
