Mandatory Use of E-Verify For Federal Contractors Delayed
By Cindy Caplan
The implementation of regulations requiring federal contractors and subcontractors to use E-Verify has been delayed again until September 8, 2009 so that the Obama administration can review the proposed rules. E-Verify is a free, internet-based system that allows employers who are enrolled in the E-Verify program to confirm the legal status of new employees. Although use of E-verify is currently voluntary, the proposed regulation will make its use mandatory for all federal contractors who are awarded a new contract after September 8, 2009 that includes the Federal Acquisition Regulation E-Verify clause.
