2.2 Create A Case

After Form I-9 is complete, the next step is to create a case in E-Verify using the information from Form I-9. E-Verify cases must be created no later than the third business day after the employee starts work for pay. Employers who learn that they inadvertently failed to create a case by the third business day after the employee started work for pay should bring themselves into compliance immediately by creating a case for the employee.

Do not create a case for an employee whose first day of employment is before the effective date of the employer’s MOU.
