State-aware

Forms, terminology, sourcing, local structure, and special regimes stay jurisdiction-specific.

Evidence-linked

Each guide points readers to reviewed tax-authority, filing, marketplace, or certificate sources.

03

Capability-honest

Research coverage, workflow support, state acceptance, and direct filing authority remain separate claims.
