operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The web-based program, which allows participating employers to electronically verify the information provided by employees on the Form I-9, was shut down last week as a result of the government shutdown that started October 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In new guidance posted yesterday, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.e-verify.gov\/\">E-Verify<\/a> said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list is-style-brightmine-list-item-spacing-small\">\n<li class=\"\">Employers that participate in E-Verify must create an E-Verify case by Tuesday, October 14, for each employee hired while E-Verify was not available.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Employers that had an employee who received a mismatch and notified the employer of their intention to contest it must revise the Referral Date Confirmation through one of three methods.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Any calendar day when E-Verify was unavailable will not count toward any of the federal contractor deadlines.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">E-Verify was not available during the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brightmine.com\/us\/resources\/hr-compliance\/government-shutdown-2025\/\">shutdown<\/a> because of the lapse in Department of Homeland Security (DHS) appropriations and because its statutory authority was not renewed. The source of funding under which E-Verify has resumed operations is not clear, so it is possible there will be outages again if the shutdown continues.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div
