#  E-Verify+

Written on June 26, 2025.

*Tag(s):* [Immigration](https://wimlaw.com/index.php?option=com_tags&view=tag&id%5B0%5D=51:immigration), [June 2025 Newsletter](https://wimlaw.com/index.php?option=com_tags&view=tag&id%5B0%5D=188:june-2025-newsletter), [I-9](https://wimlaw.com/index.php?option=com_tags&view=tag&id%5B0%5D=190:i-9)

E-Verify+ is a new tool that streamlines the employment eligibility verification process for employers and new hires.

E-Verify+ combines aspects of the current E-Verify service with Form I-9 creating a new method of employment eligibility verification that is almost entirely electronic. Employers using the service can create cases through their E-Verify account for new hires and employees will receive an e-mail containing a link to electronically complete Form I-9.

If an employee's supporting Form I-9 documents result in a tentative non-confirmation or mismatch, E-Verify+ will notify the employee, and the employer will see the employee's online case status changed to “Needs More Time.”

It is the employee's choice whether to take action and address the issue. If the employee chooses to take action, the employee will have eight (8) federal working days to contact the Department of Homeland security or visit the Social Security office to rectify the matter. If the issue is not resolved, the employer may receive a final non-confirmation case result in E-Verify+, which means the system cannot confirm the employee's employment eligibility status. At that point, the employer can terminate the employee without being subject to civil or criminal liabilities.

If an employee successfully completes Form I-9 online and includes proper supporting documentation, E-Verify+ notifies the employer that the form is ready for review. The employer or its authorized agent must review the employee’s Form I-9 documents in real time to make sure that they reasonably appear genuine and relate to the employee. The document review process can either be done in person or remotely through live video.

Assuming the documents and Form I-9 pass muster, the employer can electronically sign the form. E-Verify+ will create a PDF version of the form and supporting documents, which the employer must download and maintain in accordance with Form I-9 record keeping requirements.

Although E-Verify+ reduces the amount of time and effort an employer needs to verify the employment eligibility of new hires, it contains some limitations. Currently, E-Verify+ is only available for “employer access” companies, which are those that access E-Verify solely through a web browser. Employees may also choose to opt out of using E-Verify+ in which case the employer must use the traditional E-Verify process.

Employers must have an E-Verify account to access E-Verify+, and only the employer's program administrator for the account can enable E-Verify+.
