Employee Eligibility

Employment Eligibility is the term used by the U.S. government to describe the process of determining if an employee/worker you are hiring has a legal right to work. In other words, proving an employee's Employment Eligibility will show that they are not an Illegal Immigrant and will allow your company to operate within U.S. Immigration law.

To fulfill this government mandate you must perform the necessary checks as well as file the proper forms.

Background Checks

A simple background check using a Social Security Number shows whether or not that particular social security number matches the Employee's name. It does not prove the employee is Work Authorized in the United States. Only an Employment Eligibility Verification or E-Verify check through I-9 Advantage can determine Work Authorization status.

E-Verify Services

People Wise offers comprehensive services for your business that will provide all you need to meet federal guidelines to verify each new employee you hire. Every U.S. employer must complete a Form I-9 for each and every employee they hire, no matter how many employees they hire.

Penalties for failing to file or incorrectly filing a Form I-9 range from $275 to $11,000 depending on the number of offenses and the date the employee was hired. Keep in mind these penalties are not just limited to employees, but also cover contract employees known to be unauthorized to work in the U.S.
