United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has announced the June 13 launch of a newly-designed E-Verify website. Highlights of the redesign include:
- icons accompanying case statuses to make it easier to identify cases requiring attention;
- the ability of businesses to view their Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) electronically; and
- simplified terms to better guide users through the process.
Existing users’ IDs and passwords remain valid, and all open cases will be accessible via the new platform. When users log on to the new E-Verify website, they will be required to take a short tutorial about the changes.
E-Verify is an electronic employment verification system, operated by the U.S. government, allowing employers to verify that individuals are legally permitted to live and work in the United States.
