E-Verify is a free, internet-based system operated in partnership with the Social Security Administration (SSA) that helps employers to determine the employment eligibility of newly-hired employees.

The E-Verify program currently is the best means available for employers to determine employment eligibility of new hires and the validity of their Social Security Numbers. E-Verify electronically compares information contained in the Employment Eligibility Verification Form I-9 with records contained in SSA and DHS databases to help employers verify identity and employment eligibility of newly-hired employees.

E-Verify is a free, easy to use web-based system available to employers in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the U.S Virgin Islands.
