1. A method for determining record information, the method being implemented by one or more processors and comprising the steps of:
- receiving a low quality image of a record from a user;
performing optical character recognition on the image to determine a first set of information items about the record;
identifying a second set of information items that are likely part of the record but not determinable from performing optical character recognition on the image;
utilizing another resource to determine the second set of information items;
determining a classification for the record based on first and second sets of information items; and
associating the record with a financial resource of the user based at least in part on the classification;
wherein utilizing another resource includes;
(i) scanning a plurality of transactions recorded with one or more financial accounts of the user;
(ii) identifying at least a first transaction that is relevant to the record, based on the first set of information items; and
(iii) identifying the second set of information items from information provided with the at least first transaction.

Abstract
A service can perform optical character recognition (OCR) on an image of a record to determine a first set of information items about the record. A second set of information items can be identified that are likely part of the record but not determinable from performing OCR on the image. Another resource can be utilized to determine the second set of information items. A classification for the record can be determined based on first and second sets of information items. The record can be associated with a financial resource of the user based at least in part on the classification.
