Editorial policy

PaycheckGrid exists to give people numbers they can trust about their own pay. This policy sets out how we keep them accurate.

Sourcing

Every figure comes from official IRS, SSA, and state revenue department tables. Each rate is transcribed into a dated, version-stamped dataset that records its source and the date it was verified. Numbers are transcribed, never inferred or written from memory. Because the calculator and every page share one engine, a page can never quote a different figure from the tool.

The build check

An automated build check rejects any on-page dollar figure that is not derived from the datasets. If a number is not in a source-backed dataset, the page does not ship. That is what stops a stray figure from ever reaching a reader.

Corrections

We welcome corrections. Email support@inventum.com.au. We check the figure against its official source, and if it is wrong we fix it, update the dataset's verified date, and the page reflects the change.

No invented authors

Content is published under PaycheckGrid Editorial and the publisher Inventum. We do not create fictional authors, photos, or credentials. Advertising on the site never influences a rate or a calculation.
