Statistics
96.9 percent of all cases run through the E-Verify program are verified automatically with no further action required by the employer or the employee
The remaining 3.1 percent of employees receive a Tentative Nonconfirmation (TNC)
> Of this 3.1 percent, 2.8 percent eventually receive a Final Nonconformation (FNC) and are consequently not verified as authorized to work through the program
> .3 percent of these TNCs eventually result in employment authorization

Federal Contractors
As of September 8, 2009, the FAR final rule requires many Federal Contractors (and subcontractors) to use E-Verify to verify their employees’ eligibility to work legally in the United States
The Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) have been amended by the Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense Acquisition Regulations Council to reflect the FAR final rule which was published on November 14, 2008

Employer responsibilities
Unless you are a Federal Contractor with FAR E-Verify Clause, only use E-Verify to verify new hires
Once you begin using E-Verify, you must verify new employees no later than the 3rd business day after the employee begins working for pay
You must apply E-Verify procedures to ALL new hires, regardless of citizenship status
