Phase 2: Verify Against Official Sources

4. Use WebSearch to verify each fact against authoritative sources:

   Primary sources (MUST use when relevant):

   • Agencia Tributaria (sede.agenciatributaria.gob.es) - taxes, IVA, IRPF, models
   • Seguridad Social (seg-social.es) - contributions, quotas, benefits
   • BOE (boe.es) - laws, royal decrees, official regulations
   • Ministerio de Trabajo - labor regulations
   • Banco de España - banking regulations

   Secondary sources (for additional context):

   • Official bank websites
   • Professional associations (colegios profesionales)
   • Recognized legal/tax advisory firms with cited sources

5. For each fact, document:

   • The exact claim from the article
   • What the official source says
   • The URL of the source
   • Whether it matches, partially matches, or contradicts

Phase 3: Legal Verification

6. For any legal references:

   • Verify the law/article number is correct
   • Check if it's still in force (not derogated or modified)
   • Confirm the interpretation in the article matches the legal text
   • Use BOE or official legal databases

7. Check for outdated information:

   • Tax rates and limits often change annually
   • Social security contributions update yearly
   • Verify current year values, not historical ones

Phase 4: Generate Report
