Federal law requires that all employers verify the identity and employment eligibility of all new employees (including U.S. citizens) within three days of hire. Employees are required to complete the Form I-9, and employees must provide employers with documentation establishing both identity and eligibility to work in the United States. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Social Security Administration (SSA) have established an electronic system called E-Verify to assist employers further in verifying the employment eligibility of all newly-hired employees.
Stars Behavioral Health Group and Star View Children & Family Services use E-Verify. In short, through E-Verify, The Company sends information about you from your Form I-9 to SSA and DHS to ensure that you are authorized to work in the United States and that your name, Social Security number, date of birth, citizenship status, and any other non-citizen information you choose to provide to your employer on the Form I-9 match government records.
