Sample Further Action Notice of Mismatch with Social Security Administration (SSA) Records.

USCIS annually disposes of E-Verify employer records that are 10 years old or older per the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) records retention and disposal schedule (N 1-566-08-7).

A desk review is a compliance assistance tool that consists of phone calls, emails, interviews and document exchanges between E-Verify’s Account Compliance staff and E-Verify participants. Desk reviews allow compliance staff to help E-Verify participants correct employment verification activities that E-Verify staff have detected as non-compliant. Participants selected for a desk review provide compliance staff with E-Verify employment-related documents, such as Tentative Nonconfirmation (mismatch) notices, referral letters, and employment verification procedures and process documents.

Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, is the key element of E-Verify’s web-based employment eligibility verification. E-Verify electronically compares information the employer enters from Form I-9 to records available to the Social Security Administration and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. This verification confirms an employee’s eligibility to work in the United States.

Although E-Verify uses information from Form I-9, there are some important differences between Form I-9 and E-Verify requirements.

As part of the E-Verify process, your employer gave you a Further Action Notice explaining that E-Verify could not confirm your employment eligibility in the United States.

When you hire a new employee, you must verify their identity and employment eligibility using Form I-9. You may be among the nearly 3 million proactive worksites that also use E-Verify to electronically verify Form I-9 information. The checklists, videos, and other English resources on this page will help you understand your responsibilities and make the hiring process easy.
