E-Verify is an Internet-based system run by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in conjunction with the Social Security Administration (SSA) that allows an employer to electronically determine the eligibility of an employee to work in the United States.

According to Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Janet Napolitano, "E-Verify is a smart, simple and effective tool that helps employers across the country maintain a legal workforce."

E-Verify works by comparing the information entered on an employee’s Form I-9 with SSA and DHS records to verify the work eligibility of newly hired employees. Although not perfect, E-Verify helps guard an employer against hiring undocumented workers.

There is no charge for employers to use E-Verify. Many states have passed legislation requiring employers to use E-Verify. Check with your state's Department of Labor for more information.

E-Verify is required for employers with Federal contracts and/or subcontracts that contain the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) E-Verify clause.

An employer has the option to contract with an E-Verify Employer Agent. Companies big and small use E-Verify employer agents.
