Subcontractors, Independent Contractors, and Affiliates
Subcontractors
The E-Verify federal contractor rule requires certain federal prime contractors to require their subcontractors to use E-Verify when:
For Contractors Already Enrolled
Once your company has been awarded a Federal contract that contains the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) E-Verify clause, you must designate your company as a Federal contractor with FAR E-Verify clause by updating your company profile.
Federal Contractors
A presidential Executive order and subsequent Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) rule required federal contractors to use E-Verify to electronically verify the employment eligibility of employees working under covered federal contracts.
The order and the rule reinforce Federal government policy that the Federal government does business only with organizations that have a legal workforce.
