Starting April 2012, there is a new way to ensure a legal workforce. It called E-Verify. 

E-Verify is an Internet-based system that allows businesses to determine the eligibility of their employees to work in the United States. E-Verify is fast, free and easy to use – and it’s the best way employers can ensure a legal workforce.   To find out more about E-Verify, including Quick Reference Guides, please visit www.dhs.gov/e-verify or call 1-888-464-4218.
