The compliance review calendar: what was verified, and when
Several TrueStep HR products state that the underlying rules are reviewed and that meaningful updates are released when the law moves. This page is the record a careful buyer can check: the date each compliance topic was last verified, the checks already queued, and a log of what changed.
Verification means the note and the products that rely on it were checked against the primary source on that date. Laws change between checks, so confirm the current requirement for your location before a legally consequential decision. This is general information, not legal advice.
The verification calendar

How to read a date
- Open any note above. The Last verified date printed near the top is the same date shown here.
- If a rule has a known future effective date, a re-check is queued before it lands. Those are listed below.
Queued checks
Scheduled before the law landsDated
- 29 July 2026: Maine posting-law in-force confirmation, the day the 2026 requirements take effect.
- January 2027: the annual salary-floor and state-table cycle. Federal exempt thresholds, state pay transparency tables, Ontario figures, and the Mexico transition schedule are all re-verified for the new year.
Event-driven
- PWFA appellate watch: a pending federal appellate ruling could adjust PWFA accommodation obligations; the note and kit are updated when the decision issues.
- Any new statute or regulation touching a covered topic triggers an off-cycle review of the affected note and products.
The update log
Newest first- 14 July 2026: language-clarity revision across the guide library. Statutes are now spelled out on first use in the guides that cite them (the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA); the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)) so a reader never meets a bare acronym first.
- 13 July 2026: Maine 2026 posting law re-verified against the primary source ahead of its 29 July effective date. No product changes required.
- 24 June 2026: full verification pass across all fourteen compliance topics above. Every reference note carries this date.

The review standard
How the dates stay realThe cycle
- Every compliance product is built on a public reference note that cites the primary source and carries a Last verified date.
- A full pass runs at least annually, and the January salary-floor cycle re-verifies every figure that resets with the new year.
The triggers
- A new law, regulation, or agency rule touching a covered topic.
- A known future effective date, which puts a dated re-check on this page before the rule lands.
- A court decision that changes how a covered rule applies.
