  9. Senate Bill 590 • Synopsis: • (6) Requires an agency or political subdivision to verify the eligibility of an individual who applies for federal, state, or local public benefits • (9) Allows a state agency or political subdivision to terminate a public contract for services with a contractor for breach of the public contract for services if the contractor knowingly employs an unauthorized alien. • (12) Establishes certain state crimes, including: (A) offenses related to identification numbers and documents; (B) false identity statement • (18) Prohibits a person who is not lawfully in the United States from being eligible for or receiving any higher education award or a resident tuition rate. • http://www.in.gov/legislative/bills/2011/PDF/SE/SE0590.1.pdf • Effective: July 1, 2011.

  10. Indiana University’s Compliance Measures • Fall 2011 IU introduced an online citizenship affidavit to comply with new legislation. • Students who are unable to affirm lawful presence in the United States will: • Pay out-of-state tuition. • No longer receive institutional financial aid (scholarships, grants, assistantships, etc.) • Students who do not respond by October/November will: • Pay out-of-state tuition. • No longer receive institutional financial aid. • Be blocked from utilizing OneStart services. • (This is an incentive to promote compliance with completion of the verification process.)
