How Can E-Verify Take Your Company to the Next Level?

In an era characterized by rapid technological advancements, businesses are increasingly turning to innovative solutions to streamline their hiring processes while ensuring legal compliance and maintaining workforce integrity.  E-Verify services, which provide a robust platform for verifying the employment eligibility of newly hired employees, has emerged as a crucial tool for employers.

What is E-Verify?

E-Verify is an Internet-based system operated by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), part of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), in partnership with the Social Security Administration (SSA).  This system allows businesses to determine their employees’ eligibility to work in the United States.  Participation in E-Verify is voluntary for most employers, but other employers may be required by State law or Federal regulation.

The Benefits of E-Verify and what it means to the Employer.

The main benefit of using E-Verify is that it gives employers peace of mind knowing that their employees are legally authorized to work in the United States.  This system provides accurate verifications by comparing employee information to SSA and DHS records.  This can help employers avoid accepting social security mismatches and falsified documents that can delay hiring or cause administrative issues. Also, when using E-Verify to confirm identity and eligibility, employers can create good-faith relationships in the hiring process.  Additionally, all documents are stored electronically, which minimizes misplacing sensitive information and increases security.

How Does E-Verify Work?

When participating in E-Verify, employers are required to complete Form I-9 for each newly hired employee.  After the form has been completed with the appropriate documents, the employer will then provide these documents to our E-Verify team.  Our team will submit the documentation to E-Verify and respond with the authorization. Our team usually completes this process in less than 24 hours.
