Biden Administration Action: Revoked/Replaced
July 15, 2022Social Security Administration Resumes E-Verify Operations
This Biden administration policy revokes the Trump-era policy identified in this entry, and returns to the pre-Covid19 policy.
The Social Security Administration states that employees whose E-Verify cases are referred to SSA on or after July 15, 2022, will have 8 federal working days to contact their local SSA office to begin resolving the mismatch. E-Verify cases referred between March 2, 2020 to July 14, 2022, with a SSA mismatch will still have an extended timeframe to be resolved.

Previously, upon receiving a Tentative Nonconfirmation from the E-Verify process, an employee would have eight federal government working days to visit an SSA office to contest their TNC; if 10 days passed with no action from the employee, E-Verify would automatically change the employee's status to Final Nonconfirmation. The new announcement does not explain how long it extends the timeframe for, but presumably is an extension on this previous policy.
