United States laws require employers to employ only individuals who may legally work in the United States – either U.S. citizens, or foreign citizens who have the necessary authorization to work in the U.S. Every employer who recruits, refers for a fee, or hires an individual for employment in the United States must complete Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification. The Form I-9 helps employers verify their employee’s identity and employment authorization.
E-Verify is an Internet-based system that allows employers to determine the eligibility of their employees to work in the United States. E-verify compares information from an employee’s Form I-9 to data from U.S. Department of Homeland Security and Social Security Administration records to confirm employment eligibility.
