Sodium boro-formate

Crystals of little-known sodium boroformate, for which the literature gives a formula NaH2CO3·2HCOOH·2H2O. However, how exactly the ions of this substance are arranged is unknown to me. The formula only gives the ratio of sodium, borate, and formate. I strongly suspect that two molecules of formic acid are chemically bound to borate.
