Wednesday, July 8th, 2009DHS announced today that it supports the FAR E-Verify regulation for federal contractors to enroll in E-Verify as of 9/8/09. This means that most federal contractors and subcontractors will be required to enroll in E-Verify. Secretary Napolitano also announced DHS’ intention to rescind the Social Security No-Match regulation that would have sent “no-match” letters to 140,000 US employers. The notices would have warned companies to resolve discrepancies or fire workers within 90 days or face criminal charges.
