Editorial standards

Articles on this site are written and reviewed by licensed CPAs. They are published under the LedgerOS name rather than an individual byline, and nothing is published until a licensed CPA has reviewed it for technical accuracy.

A statement about tax law cites a primary source: the Internal Revenue Code, Treasury regulations, IRS guidance such as revenue rulings, revenue procedures, notices, publications and fact sheets, or a court decision. Every source an article relies on is listed at the end of it with a link.

Wage and employment figures come from government statistics, principally the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and name the survey and the period they come from.

Some articles include figures drawn from activity across firms that use LedgerOS. Those figures are aggregated and anonymized, no firm or client can be identified from them, and each one says what period and population it covers.

Articles explain how rules and workflows generally work. They are not tax, legal or accounting advice for a particular situation, and reading one does not create a client relationship. Apply them with a professional who knows the facts.

If something we published is wrong or out of date, tell us at support@tryledgeros.com. We review every report.

When an article is corrected, the fix is made in the article itself, the “Updated” date at the top changes, and a material correction is noted at the end of the article with what changed. We do not quietly rewrite a claim someone may already have relied on.

LedgerOS makes practice management software, and articles may mention it where it is relevant. Those mentions are kept separate from the explanation and are clearly marked; the explanation holds up whichever software you use.
