When do you have too much paperwork?

Primrose

Keep the last year of everything in paper form. I never trust the banks, government or pension providers not to be to be hacked and lose all my records Tax info should be kept for seven years. Get a shredder and make sure none of your personal information can be identified.

To anyone that isn't claiming their pensions Yet, keep all your P60s and important paperwork from each pension scheme (terms, a statement and any leaving paperwork until well into retirement). Not every employer and the hmrc will have everyone's accurate records from 40 years previously and it's in your interest to have it otherwise you could lose out.
