If a wildfire, hurricane or other disaster destroys important financial records, you may be able to reconstruct them for tax purposes, insurance claims or federal assistance. You can access tax transcripts through an IRS Individual Online Account or by request. Banks and credit card companies may provide past statements. Photos, receipts and canceled checks can help establish property values. Taxpayers in disaster areas may also find personalized messages in their IRS online accounts about tax relief and extended filing or payment deadlines. If a disaster impacts you, we can help determine which records you may need and how to reconstruct them.
