USCIS' E-Verify Supplemental Guide Offers Important Guidance for Federal Contractors |
October 22, 2009
Previously published on September 2009
On September 8, 2009, a Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) final rule (the "federal contractor rule") went into effect that requires certain federal contractors and their subcontractors to agree, through language inserted into their qualifying federal contracts, to use the E-Verify program to electronically verify the employment eligibility of certain employees. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has recently published a new Supplemental Guide to its E-Verify User Manual for federal contractors. The guide offers important guidance and clarification on some questions that have remained unanswered since the federal contractor rule was first published. Employers are encouraged to carefully review the supplemental guide and user manual, which can be downloaded from the USCIS website at www.uscis.gov.
