USCIS launches new website for employee verification

USCIS announced the launch of the new website for verifying employment eligibility for those hired to work in USA. The website, E-Verify.gov, acts as an authoritative source of information on verification of eligibility for employment. This is a new move for US immigration.

The website is user-friendly. It provides information about aspects of USA immigration like E-Verify and Form I-9. The website also gives information about employee rights and responsibilities of the employer in the process of employment verification.

Using E-Verify.gov, employers can enroll directly and let existing users access their accounts. This will be possible also for those with myE-Verify accounts. E-Verify.com is based on the internet and can be used freely and easily. The site is accessible for employers from anywhere, anytime using a web browser.

The confirmation of employees to be authorized for work is done mostly instantaneously or within a day’s time. The system has 800,000 employers enrolled in it. The system matches information from the Form I-9 to records available to DHS and the SSA. Thus, they verify work authorizations in the US.

USCIS encourages all employers in the US to verify new workers hired through E-Verify. The aim is to reduce illegal immigration. Another objective is to preserve jobs for US workers.
