Editorial Policy

How Auranik creates content

Auranik-authored Community answers and Immigration Toolkit content follow a consistent structure: a short, direct answer first, then the conditions it depends on, the documents or steps involved, and any important exception -- followed by the official source and a link to a relevant Auranik tool or service. This is deliberate: we want a genuine question answered plainly before anything else, not a marketing introduction.

Primary-source preference

Where a claim is legally or administratively sensitive -- immigration, tax, business registration -- Auranik prefers, in order:

• Official legislation and government portals (gov.pl, MOS, UDSC, Urząd do Spraw Cudzoziemców, voivodeship offices, ELI/official legislation text)
• EU and international bodies (European Commission, HCCH) for cross-border rules such as apostille/legalisation
• Official business/tax portals (biznes.gov.pl, podatki.gov.pl, ZUS, KRS/Ministry of Justice) for company and tax questions
• Official university/scholarship sources (NAWA, individual universities, study.gov.pl) for study-abroad questions

Every Auranik answer that states a specific figure, deadline or legal rule links to the official source it came from. Where a figure is confirmed by multiple independent sources rather than a single directly-verified page, or where requirements are known to vary (by consulate, university or individual circumstances), the answer says so explicitly rather than presenting it as a single universal rule.

Review and update process

Each Auranik-authored answer shows when it was last reviewed. Immigration/tax/business rules can change -- a review date reflects when the content was last checked against its source, not a guarantee that nothing has changed since. If you believe something is outdated, use the "Suggest a correction" option on the relevant page (see below).

Auranik does not claim review by a qualified lawyer, accountant or immigration professional unless that review has genuinely happened. Where it has, that will be stated explicitly with the reviewer's role -- Auranik does not invent credentials or imply regulated professional sign-off that hasn't occurred.

Auranik content vs. Community content

Three distinct things appear under "Community", and they are not equally authoritative:

• Articles -- written and published by Auranik's editorial team, following the source preference above.
• Auranik Answered questions -- a community member asked the question; the answer shown (marked "Auranik Response") was written by Auranik, following the same structure and source discipline as articles.
• Experiences and Awaiting-Answer questions -- submitted by community members and moderated for spam, private information and safety before they appear on the site, but reflect individual experience or opinion, not a verified Auranik answer. These are not legal, immigration, financial or government advice.

Correction process

Every Auranik-answered Community question, and every Immigration Toolkit page with a FAQ section, has a "Report outdated information / Suggest a correction" link. Submitting one sends a report directly to Auranik for review -- it is not published automatically and does not change the page itself; a human reviews it and updates the content where warranted.
