DHS AND SSA MISMATCHES

A DHS or SSA Tentative Nonconfirmation (mismatch) results when the information entered in E-Verify does not match DHS records or data available to SSA. A mismatch does not necessarily mean that the employee is not authorized to work in the United States.

E-Verify Overview

E-Verify is an internet-based system that compares information from your Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification, to records available to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Social Security Administration (SSA) to confirm that you are authorized to work in the United States. Participation in E-Verify is required of some employers by contracts or local laws, but many employers choose to participate on their own.

Account Compliance

USCIS protects E-Verify against system misuse through account compliance activities, such as identifying and resolving compliance issues, notifying employers of noncompliant behaviors, and offering compliance assistance in the form of emails, phone calls, desk reviews, and site visits.
