Is a federal contractor whose contract contains the FAR E-Verify clause expected to comply with the requirement of verifying its existing nonexempt employees within 180 days even though the contract may be completed in less than 180 days?

The FAR contractor’s obligations in the MOU, including the requirement to use E-Verify, require the contractor to complete the verification of all employees within 180 days and that obligation is entered into in addition to any obligations for performance under the contract even if those are completed prior to 180 days.
