What changed, and when
Dueplans is only as good as its sources. This page is the public record of keeping them honest: every re-check, correction and source change behind the plan, dated as it happens.
“Last verified” is our date, not the government’s — the last day we opened the official page a task is based on and confirmed the plan still matches it. When an official page changes, the card changes with it, and the change is logged here.
The rhythm: a full sweep every January, when EI and child care program rules tend to change; city child care pages re-checked every three months; and off-cycle updates whenever we learn a rule has changed. If something here looks stale, the Privacy page tells you how to reach us.

Changelog
October 26, 2026 — corpus 1.0.0, initial full sweep
- First publication of the rule corpus with this changelog. Every rule’s official page was opened and re-checked on this date (UTC); the verification method and per-rule excerpts are retained internally, and each card on the plan generator shows its own last-verified date.
- Sources re-checked: ontario.ca (Midwifery in Ontario; ESA guide — Pregnancy and parental leave; Register a birth; Service system managers for child care and early years programs), canada.ca (EI maternity and parental benefits — overview and apply; Canada child benefit — how to apply; Benefits for self-employed people), toronto.ca (TELCCS registration; Toronto Public Health — Prenatal Programs), ottawa.ca (Apply for child care — CCRAW).
- Verification note: the ottawa.ca page was verified through its published page content while direct access from our verification network was blocked by the City’s site protection; a direct re-check from an unblocked network is queued for the next sweep.
- Correction (same day): the midwifery task’s citation was corrected to the source page’s own update date — January 23, 2026 (it initially read January 22, 2026).
