E-Verify • Parties/Individuals held responsible for the E-Verify process depend on agency organization and affiliation of oversight. • If the VFD is firefighter/member owned, then the E-Verify online process is the responsibility of the individual department. • If VFD oversight is any government agency - i.e. town, city, county, state – then the E-Verify process falls under the responsibility of the government agency responsible for paying the VFD bills, funding, etc. VFD’s whom fall under supervision of a government entity should reference completion of E-Verify through an agency Trustee • The process of confirming government oversight E-Verify completion should be completed before signing and sending the Cooperative Mutual Aid form included within the packet to avoid misrepresentation and therefore potential funding problems or retractions.
If your Department has never filed for E-Verify go to the website: http://www.dhs.gov/how-do-i/verify-employment-eligibility-e-verify Follow the directions/links and register only new employees
