Important information about E-Verify
AASBO has provided the following information:
School districts are required to use the E-Verify (formerly known as the Basic Pilot Program)
effective January 1, 2008, to verify the employment authorization status of all newly hired employees.
If your school district is a member of the ASBA Policy Advisory Program, you may want to refer
to Policy Advisories No. 297 and No. 298 to obtain additional information on the employment
verification process. If you want more information about the law that passed last legislative
session setting up these requirements (HB 2779 - Chapter 279), a summary is available
here.
School Districts can register for E-Verify
here. You
will need information such as your Federal Tax ID number and number of employees in order to register.
Documentation on how to use the E-Verify system once you are registered can be found
here.
