WASHINGTON—U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) today announced the launch of our new website, E-Verify.gov. This is the authoritative source for information on electronic employment eligibility verification. E-Verify.gov is for employers, employees and the general public.
The user-friendly website provides information about E-Verify and Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, including employee rights and employer responsibilities in the employment verification process. E-Verify.gov allows employers to enroll in E-Verify directly and permits current users to access their accounts. Individuals with myE-Verify accounts can also access their accounts through E-Verify.gov.
“For the past decade, E-Verify has been the cornerstone of our continued commitment to helping employers maintain a legal workforce,” said USCIS Director L. Francis Cissna. “E-Verify.gov now allows users to better understand and navigate through the employment verification process.”
E-Verify is a free, easy-to-use internet-based system. Employers can access E-Verify anytime, anywhere directly from a web browser. Nearly all employees are confirmed as work-authorized instantly or within 24 hours. The system, which has nearly 800,000 enrolled employers, compares information from an employee’s Form I-9 to records available to the Department of Homeland Security and the Social Security Administration to verify authorization to work in the U.S.
On April 18, 2017, President Trump signed the Buy American and Hire American executive order to help reduce illegal immigration and preserve jobs for U.S. workers. To support these objectives, USCIS encourages all U.S. employers to verify all new hires through E-Verify.

I have seen the benefits of using e-verify.
It provides the employer with a government approval of the workers you are hiring - if they are found to be illegal and you use E-Verify, you can't be charged for hiring that illegal.
Make it the law of the land, and add a reward for turning in employers that hire illegals. Make a mandatory 1 year in jail , all active time for violators of the law! Jail the employer or hiring manager for a min. 365 days! Lock them up!
I wonder if this tell the employer that Joe Smith is really Jose Sanchez. Many identities are being stolen so that illegals can gain employment but there was no way to tell if that was really the person you were hiring.
Think I will check on what's his name...Obama.
4:05 you mean Osama the Muslim President of the USA, right?
