Every employer in the U.S., from the smallest business to the largest multi-national employer, is required to obtain a Form I-9 on every employee to verify the individual’s identity and that they are legally authorized to work in the U.S.

E-verify is an online program managed by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), where employers can verify the employment eligibility of their newly hired employees.

Who Uses E-Verify?

Unlike Form I-9, which is a requirement for every employer, not every employer uses E-Verify. Some employers must use E-Verify by law, such as federal and state government contractors and sub-contractors. Several states require all employers in the state to use E-Verify.

Many employers that aren’t required to use E-Verify opt to use E-Verify as another step to confirm their employees are all legally authorized to work in the U.S.
