Tip of the Month - Make Copies of Important Documents
Make a photocopy of the front and back of everything you carry in your wallet. That way if you lose it, it will be easier to contact everyone for replacements.
Since you will be copying potentially sensitive personal information - SS#, credit card, etc. – ensure that you store your copy in a safe, secure place.
When you travel internationally, carry a copy of your passport in a different piece of luggage than the original. If you have the original in your carry on, put the copy in the checked luggage. If one of them gets lost, the other is likely to make it to your destination.
