Are employers allowed to share E-Verify case information with state agency representatives as proof of E-Verify enrollment and use to comply with a state law?

Many states require employers to disclose E-Verify case information to state officials as proof of compliance with state laws requiring use of E-Verify as a condition of state business licensing. Employers and their E-Verify Employer Agents who enroll in E-Verify to comply with state law are authorized by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to provide certain E-Verify information to authorized state officials, DHS, Immigrant and Employee Rights section (IER) and their contractors. This permission allows employers to comply with state laws as well as the E-Verify Memorandum of Understanding, which only allows dissemination of certain E-Verify information when it is authorized in advance by Social Security Administration (SSA) or DHS for legitimate purposes. 

The E-Verify Quick Audit Report was designed to satisfy requirements that employers report their E-Verify activity to authorized Federal, state, and local government agencies.

The Quick Audit Report case data provides:

  • Basic company information;
  • Case identifiers;
  • Case resolution information; and
  • No sensitive employee information.

You may find further information about the Quick Audit Report in the E-Verify User Manual for Employers.
