E-Verify

All employers in the state must enroll in and use the E-Verify system for all new hires.

Penalties: Noncompliance could result in probationary periods and additional filing requirements, license suspension, and potential permanent revocation of license.

Note to employers: Employers have requirements once enrolled in E-Verify, including but not limited to completion of Form I-9 and its verification (the Three Day Rule). Noncompliance could lead to significant civil fines. Some local municipalities also have E-Verify requirements.
