DHS has posted a notice on their website stating that federal contractors and subcontractors will be required to begin using the E-Verify system starting May 21, 2009 to verify their employees’ eligibility to legally work in the U.S. A notice of the change was published in the Federal Register on January 30, 2009 (74 FR 5621) that explains the delay is to permit the new Administration an adequate opportunity to review the rule.
