How we research, write, and verify retirement planning content
At 401K.is, we are committed to providing accurate, unbiased, and up-to-date retirement planning information. This page explains our editorial standards, fact-checking process, and how we maintain the quality of our content.
Our Editorial Standards
Every piece of content on 401K.is is researched using primary sources including IRS publications, Department of Labor regulations, SEC filings, and official provider documentation. We verify all facts before publication and update content when regulations change.
Fact-Checking Process
Our multi-step review process ensures accuracy: author research from primary sources, cross-referencing with IRS and DOL publications, review by Phin Smith (Tax Consultant), and final editorial review before publication.
Editorial Independence
Our editorial team operates independently from business operations. We do not accept payment from 401(k) providers to influence our rankings or content. All recommendations represent our editorial opinion based on objective analysis.
Corrections Policy
If you find an error in our content, please contact us at [email protected]. We review all reports and publish corrections promptly.
