My taxes got really complicated in 2020 due to the pandemic. My wife and I had a lot more W2’s and 1099’s than we normally have. And because we were still in the pandemic lockdown, we didn’t want to meet in person with our accountant. The Personal Archive was the perfect solution. Not only could we securely send all the documents, but we could view the audit trail to make sure he looked at each one. This was a much easier and efficient way to do taxes.

My fiancé and I were buying a new home and applying for a mortgage. The number of documents you need for a mortgage are insane: tax returns, W2’s, bank statements, client letters, cancelled checks, all going back years and all with very sensitive personal information. My fiancé and I were each instructed to upload them to the mortgage company’s portal. But we ran into a simple, but potentially fatal problem. He didn’t have any of his documents in digital form. Nor did he have a scanner. So I took them, scanned them, and put them into The Personal Archive. I gave him secure access to them so he could download them onto his computer and then upload them to the portal. And because the mortgage company’s portal sometimes lost documents, we were always able to easily find the document that needed to be reuploaded. The Personal Archive helped us get into our new home. Thanks.

My mother was taken to the hospital after she fell at church. She didn’t have her purse with her, with her insurance cards, so when I got to the emergency room, I was bombarded with questions about her insurance, her medications and other conditions she had. Fortunately, my brother had uploaded her medication list, medical conditions and scans of her Medicare and supplemental insurance cards. He gave me access to those documents through my own account. I was able to log in while at the hospital and get all the information we needed.
