E-Verify

Confirms employment eligibility by checking information provided by your employee against the Social Security Administration’s (SSA) and the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) records. E-Verify is most often completed in conjunction with i9, but it is possible to run E-Verify on its own. E-Verify does not replace the i9 form and the information it provides. 

For questions regarding how to avoid unfair/discriminatory verification practices when using E-Verify, please use the contact info below for the US DOJ, Civil Rights Division, Immigrant and Employee rights section (IER). Please note, federal contractors have special requirements with E-Verify.
