Our process

How we review resources

The Resource Finder is a starting point, not a recommendation. Here's how we choose what's listed and keep it current.

Step 1

We check the source

Every link points to an official or recognized body, a government agency, regulator, court tribunal, recognized professional association, or established non-profit. We don't list blogs, forums, or commercial services we haven't vetted.

Step 2

We confirm the purpose

Each entry is checked for what it actually offers: who it's for, what it can help with, and where it applies. We write a plain-language summary so you don't have to guess.

Step 3

We verify the link

We confirm the URL still works and still points to the resource described. Broken or redirected links are fixed or removed.

Step 4

We re-check on a schedule

Each resource carries a 'last reviewed' date. We re-review entries regularly and remove or update anything that's out of date. You can see the review date on every listing.

What a directory can and can't do

  • We list resources we believe are reliable starting points, but inclusion isn't an endorsement of any specific outcome.
  • Rules, eligibility, and waiting times vary and change. Always confirm directly with the organization before relying on a service.
  • We can't assess whether your situation meets any legal threshold, that's advice only a qualified professional can give.
  • If a listing is wrong or out of date, please tell us so we can fix it.

Found a problem with a resource?

Let us know and we'll re-review it. We'd rather remove a link than leave a broken one.
