Use the home inventory worksheet
If you ever
have to file an insurance claim, a home inventory provides a basis
for the compensation you request from your insurance company. The
Home inventory page gives you a central place to
list your assets and their value. Before you get started, gather
any receipts or other information you have about the items you own
and their worth.
To use the Home
inventory page, you must first customize the My
Money page to include the Home inventory
area. To learn more, see the related topics below.
- Go to the My Money page.
- Click Go to my home inventory.
- Do one of the following:
- To add an item to your inventory, click New,
and then follow the instructions on the screen.
- To edit an existing item, double-click it.
Notes
- If you have many similar items, you can enter them more quickly
by creating a copy of the first item you enter and then editing its
information as necessary. To do this, click the original item in
the list, and then click Copy. When you finish
editing the copy, click Update to add the new item
to your inventory.
- To make your inventory more complete, you can link digital
pictures to your inventory. To do so, on the Inventory
Details page, click Inventory Image.
