1.3 The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) E-Verify clause in a Federal Contract

Only federal contracts awarded and solicitations issued after September 8, 2009, will include the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) E-Verify clause that requires federal contractors to use E-Verify. Your government contracting official will determine whether your contract qualifies for the FAR E-Verify clause, based on the criteria below. Subcontracts for more than $3,500 for most commercial or non-commercial services or construction also qualify for the FAR E-Verify clause.

For information on the FAR E-Verify clause, see Section 5.
