As an employer, you want
to do the right thing. But how can you insure that your prospective
hire has a legal right to work in the United States?
The simple solution: use
E-Verify (formerly Basic Pilot Program),
the Department of Homeland Security's Electronic Employment
Verification Program. E-Verify enables employers to quickly and
easily verify the work authorization of their newly hired employees.
E-Verify does this by
providing access to the Verification Information System (VIS) database.
This database is a nationally accessible database of immigration status
information, including more than 60 million records.
As a pilot program
accessible to employers in states with the largest number of
immigrants, it achieved great success and positive ratings from
businesses. That encouraged Congress in late 2003 to pass a law that
expanded the program to include employers in all 50 states by October
1, 2004.
