E-Verify becomes mandatory for federal contractors and subcontractors
HispanicSMB Blogs By Hispanic SMB on 9/16/2009
E-Verify was started five years ago as a pilot program to help businesses verify their employees work eligibility status. The free internet-based system has been on a voluntary basis up until now. However, now all federal contractors and subcontractors will be required to use the verification system to check if their employees are legally eligible to work in the United States. This new mandate applies to current employees already on the payroll. To date, almost 150,000 companies have signed up for the program hoping to save thousands of dollars in fines should their company find themselves the subject of an audit from ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency).
