ABSTRACT:
A filing system for storing, organizing, and handling household documents and data includes a file container in which a series of file folders are supported. Each file folder is provided with a label for a general topic and a related color for ease of identification. In general, red file folders are used for the distribution of information, mail processing, bills to be paid, and paperwork to be filed. Green file folders are used for the documentation of money received and expensed paid out. Orange file folders store information related to auto expenses and insurance, mortgage and loans, and taxes and personal finances. Blue file folders are designated for storage of information relating to legal, medical and dental, and general family matters. Information regarding general household and community matters is stored in yellow file folders. Within each file folder are a plurality of file folders, each labeled with subheadings for topics that are specific subjects relating to the general topic of the larger file folder and provided with the same color as the file folder in which it resides. In addition, selected file folders are provided with one or more icons in addition to topic labels. Each icon represents a cross-reference to another file folder. One icon indicates that further information is contained in another file folder. Another icon indicates that information within the file folder is relevant to filing tax returns. In addition, an icon may indicate that the file folder contains copies of documents which are stored elsewhere; e.g., safe, fireproof box, or sale deposit box. A further icon may indicate that the file folder contains information forms to be completed by the user, so that necessary information is elicited, organized, and stored for easy retrieval.
