What’s New With E-Verify
SELF CHECK
Are you ready for your next employer? Try Self Check, a free service. Benefits of Self Check: Self Check lets you confirm that your employment eligibility information is in order by checking it against the same databases E-Verify uses when employers enter a case. If Self Check finds a data-mismatch, you can receive instructions to correct your records with the appropriate federal agency. Self Check is a great tool for job seekers because it gives you the chance to confirm or correct your records before you meet your next employer. Learn More
SELF LOCK
Helps protect you from employment-related identity fraud by placing a “lock” on your Social Security number (SSN). This helps prevent anyone else from using your SSN to try to get a job with an E-Verify employer. Learn More
PHOTO MATCHING
E-Verify’s photo matching is an important part of the employment eligibility verification process. It requires the employer to verify that the photo displayed in E-Verify is identical to the photo on the document that the employee presented for section 2 of Form I-9. Learn More
DRIVER’S LICENSE VERIFICATION
Driver’s License Verification Records and Information from DMVs for E-Verify (RIDE). Driver’s licenses and ID cards account for nearly 80 percent of the documents used as proof of identity by employees for E-Verify. The Records and Information from DMVs for E-Verify (RIDE) initiative is an enhancement to the E-Verify program that verifies the validity of driver’s license and ID card information by matching the data entered by employers against participating state motor vehicle department records. RIDE enables two-part verification by validating the information on select identity documents in addition to the existing employment authorization check. Learn More
