Make an inventory, privately

List account providers, recurring payments, income sources and major commitments in each country. Keep sensitive details in your own secure records, not in a public discussion or a story submission.

Separate facts from assumptions

Record where you lived and worked, relevant dates and which documents you have. Citizenship, immigration status and tax residency are different questions; do not infer one from another.

Prepare questions for a qualified adviser

Ask what information they need, which jurisdictions they cover, how they charge and what is outside their expertise. Seek advice on your circumstances before changing accounts or making tax decisions.

Keep the household informed

Agree who handles recurring obligations and how another trusted household member can locate essential contacts. Review the inventory after a major move or job change. This worksheet does not provide tax or investment advice.
