“Can an Employer’s Discretion Be Used to Decide Which Form I-9 to Submit to E-Verify?”

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) created the program to ensure only work authorized individuals are hired, but employers must avoid discrimination. The proper use of the program entails certain specifics and one of these forbids employers to choose whom they use E-Verify for as this can be a cause for discrimination.

When an employer agrees to the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with DHS, they generally agree to use E-Verify on each individual they hire after a Form I-9 has been completed. It would be incorrect to use E-Verify on some employees but avoid using it for others.
