Editorial Policy
This page explains how USA Earner researches, writes, and maintains its articles.
Sourcing
- Rules, rates, limits, and deadlines come from primary sources — the IRS, CFPB, FDIC, Federal Reserve, SSA, and state agencies — with the applicable year stated and a link to the source.
- Secondary reporting is used for context only, never as the basis for a number.
- Where a figure varies by state or provider, the article says so instead of presenting a single national number as universal.
Facts and updates
- Articles that depend on annually changing figures (tax brackets, contribution limits, program thresholds) are reviewed when new figures are published.
- When an article is meaningfully revised, the change is dated.
What we don’t publish
- Fabricated testimonials, invented reader quotes, or fictional case studies presented as real people.
- Promotions of get-paid-to, paid-to-click, or “guaranteed earnings” schemes.
- Paid guest posts, sponsored articles, or links sold for search-engine benefit.
