Authorship and review

Every article is drafted by the VestedGrant editorial team and reviewed by a named, licensed professional (CPA, tax attorney, CFP, or JD) before publication. The reviewer is listed at the top of each article with their credentials and the date of review. Reviewers are paid for their time and do not receive a share of referral revenue.

Placeholder profiles

Our initial reviewer roster includes placeholder profiles. These are visible on each reviewer page via a yellow banner. We are actively pursuing real contributor partnerships to replace every placeholder before scaled publication. Until that replacement happens, placeholder reviewer profiles should be treated as illustrative, not as active endorsements from named professionals.

Sources

We cite specific IRS code sections (IRC §83, §422, §1202, §409A), current-year brackets, and primary rule changes (SEC 10b5-1 amendments, QSBS conformity rulings) rather than abstracted statements. Where a rule is deterministic ("supplemental withholding is 22%"), we state it as deterministic. Where a rule has material ambiguity ("state conformity varies annually"), we flag the ambiguity.

How we make money

Advisor matching

When a reader submits the advisor-match form and engages with a fee-only advisor in our network, the advisor pays us a fixed or revenue-share referral fee. Readers pay us nothing. Advisors pay the same rate whether or not you hire them.

Sponsored content

None. We do not accept sponsored content in editorial copy.

Affiliate links

Limited. Any article recommending a specific financial product (tax software, custodian, loan platform) will disclose the commercial relationship in a visible inline note. We do not allow affiliate compensation to determine which products we mention in primary editorial.

Corrections

Mistakes are corrected promptly at contact@vestedgrant.com with a dated note on the affected article. Substantive corrections (not just typos) include the original and corrected text.

Not advice

Nothing on VestedGrant is tax, legal, or investment advice. Every decision that involves a specific dollar amount or a specific tax year deserves review by a licensed professional who has your actual facts.
