Summary of differences between federal and state regulations
Federal contractors who receive qualifying contracts on or after September 8, 2009, must participate in the E-Verify Program, using it to verify new employees and existing employees assigned to a federal contract (qualifying federal contractors may choose to verify the entire workforce).
Georgia law requires all public employers to use the E-Verify system. Private employers of more than 10 full-time employees are also required to use E-Verify.
Georgia employers are required to provide an affidavit confirming E-Verify usage in order to receive consideration from a public employer. The affidavit must attest that the employer uses E-Verify and will continue to do so throughout the contract period and must provide the employer’s user identification number and date of E-Verify authorization.
