Fact Checking Policy

At CAPS Contract, we take accuracy and reliability very seriously. Our readers depend on us for trusted information about U.S. government-run financial programs—including Social Security Administration (SSA) benefits, Internal Revenue Service (IRS) updates, Child Tax Credit (CTC) details, stimulus payments, and retirement-related schemes—as well as updates from the rare U.S. coin market.

To maintain that trust, we adhere to a strict fact-checking process that ensures all content published on our site is accurate, verifiable, and up to date.

Why Fact-Checking Matters

Many of our readers rely on CAPS Contract to help guide their decisions about:

  • Applying for benefits
  • Understanding eligibility
  • Tracking payment dates
  • Planning for retirement
  • Investing in or collecting rare coins

Any misinformation could lead to missed opportunities, financial mistakes, or confusion. That’s why we place accuracy at the heart of everything we publish.

Our Fact-Checking Process

  1. Use of Official Sources
    Our writers and editors rely on verified, official sources for all government-related content, including:
    • SSA.gov (Social Security Administration)
    • IRS.gov (Internal Revenue Service)
    • U.S. Department of the Treasury
    • Official government press releases and public statements
    • Recognized market reports and publications for rare coin coverage
  2. Cross-Verification
    All facts, figures, eligibility criteria, dates, and policy details are cross-checked with multiple sources to ensure accuracy and consistency.
  3. Editorial Review
    Before any article is published, it undergoes an internal editorial review. This ensures that all information is:
    • Accurate
    • Clearly presented
    • Reflective of the most current policy or market information available
  4. Ongoing Monitoring and Updates
    We actively monitor official channels for new announcements or changes to programs such as SSA benefits, IRS tax credits, and stimulus initiatives. Articles are updated as necessary to reflect the latest information. For coin-related content, we monitor auction results, dealer reports, and market trends regularly to ensure accuracy.

We strive to publish content that is both accurate and useful. However, if an error is identified, we will:

  • Review and verify the issue
  • Promptly correct the content
