Vehicles: Car #1 – DMV Records

September 18, 2011 by Tracy

Last week I shared eight insurance-related documents kept in the tenth file slot of Box 1 of my important documents. In addition to the insurance documents, I also keep the DMV (Division of Motor Vehicles) records for car #1 in this file opening.

Our DMV records consist of two documents:

Registration

After paying our vehicle property taxes, I receive our registration in the mail. Before separating this document from the instructions, I make a copy. Once the registration has been removed from the paperwork and placed in my glove compartment, I will place the copy in this file opening behind the insurance documents.

License Plate Decal

When I receive our registration, the license plate decal is usually included. Again, I make a copy of the document before removing the decal and placing it on our license plate. The copy will be then be placed in this file slot with the copy of the registration.

These two documents are either stapled or paper clipped together, and placed behind the insurance documents for our vehicle #1. Next week, I will share the last set of documents for car #1 housed in this tenth file opening under the vehicle category.

Question: Does your registration and decal arrive at the same time? To add your answer, please leave a comment.
