An entry with no matching amount may be on a page that isn't in this copy, or the attachment may total it differently (or OCR misread it) — compare the page with the form.
What to check
Open the attachment page to see the individual holdings behind each total.
Compare the unmatched entries with the attachment, and with the filer's annual filing.

Context 5
ContextUnusual reporting
Lists jewelry separately from the $100,000 household-goods total
Personal vehicles, jewelry, art and furnishings can be reported in the household-goods lump sum or itemized. Net worth doesn't appear to count them twice.
What to check
No action needed unless the lump sum also includes these items.
Rule: Household items listed twice
“Describe, and state the value of, each asset you had on the reporting date you selected for your net worth, if the asset was worth more than $1,000 and if you have not already included that asset in the aggregate value of your household goods and personal effects.”2023 Form 6 instructions, Assets ✓ quoted from the saved instructions · how this rule works
