The authoritative information is in official sources: laws, rules, agency policy manuals and program pages. This site gathers it, puts it in plain terms and points back to it. If something here disagrees with an official source, the official source wins.
Each source is saved as a dated copy, so it's clear what a page was based on and when. When a site blocks automated access, a dated copy from the Internet Archive may stand in. Other projects that encode benefit rules are used only to cross-check. How this site is made has the details.
The list below is everything collected so far. It's broader than what the pages cover yet.
