Do I Have To E-Verify?

With the possibility that you as the employer can be held responsible if an employee misrepresents his identity, why risk it? Our optional E-Verify add-on ensures you always know who you’re hiring. It compares the data submitted by new employees to the federal database (based on information such as Social Security number, date of birth, and even photo-matching) and provides instant identity confirmation.

Our system can also help you correct errors and manage employee challenges, so you can keep your team productive and working while employment verification issues are resolved.
