The standard before a tool appears here
- Its advertised experience works today, on this site or in the app.
- It shows a worked example, its assumptions, and its limits on the page.
- It states where any sourced information comes from and when it was reviewed.
- It never asks for a passport number, tax identifier, account number, password, or original file.
- It never decides eligibility, residency, tax, immigration, or an official deadline.
The wider catalog remains private until another tool meets this standard. Nothing listed here is a placeholder.
Keep your dates and plans on your iPhone.
The US Expat Desk app keeps renewal reminders, plans, and trips in one place with no account. Complete adds the advanced calculators, iCloud sync, and partner sharing. See the app.
