Certain Federal contractors and subcontractors are required to enroll in and use E-Verify, an Internet-based system that allows businesses to determine the eligibility of their employees to work in the US. It is a fast and easy way to maintain a legal workforce.
Federal contractors and subcontractors with contracts containing the E-Verify Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clause must enroll in and use E-Verify. New federal contractors and subcontractors with the E-Verify FAR requirement must provide their Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number during the E-Verify enrollment process. Existing E-Verify employers designated as federal contractors with the E-Verify FAR requirement will be prompted to enter their DUNS number into E-Verify when they update their company profile. The latest Supplemental Guide for Federal Contractors provides important information about verifying new and current employees, timelines, and other guidance.
