Fourth Time is the Charm?
Mandatory Use of E-Verify for Federal Contractors
Further Delayed

      The final rule mandating use of the Department of Homeland Security's E-Verify system for certain qualifying federal contractors and subcontractors has been suspended for a fourth time, this time until September 8, 2009.  Please see prior Ice Miller alerts related to the applicability of E-Verify to federal contractors and subcontractors and the current legal challenge facing the rule: original alert and the alerts on the first delay, second delay, and third delay.

      Please contact Tami Earnhart with any questions regarding your requirement to enroll in E-Verify as a federal contractor or subcontractor or Jenifer Brown regarding E-Verify in general or other questions concerning I-9 compliance, employment verification, and other immigration-related issues.
