NCMA Puget Sound Chapter Training Event

Please join us... for a delicious dinner, non-alcoholic beverages, and a very informative presentation on federal and state E-Verify Requirements. All federal contracts awarded after September 8, 2009 are subject to mandatory E-Verification requirements for certain employees and independent contractors. These recent regulations were designed to improve accuracy of wage and tax reporting and to guarantee a legal workforce on all federal projects. Failure to comply could result in suspension or debarment, adverse performance assessment and termination for default and damages.

This session will save you time by distilling the applicable regulations, executive orders and agency guidance to key requirements necessary to successfully and efficiently enroll in E-Verify and begin the verification process for subject employees. Some of the issues that will be covered include the following:

• How to enroll and initiate the verification process
• The most controversial and misunderstood parts of the recent rules
• The professed benefit of E-Verify
• Detailed explanation of deadlines for verification
• How the changes will flow down to subcontractors
• Why prime and sub-contractors should work together to ensure compliance
• If you need to E-Verify self-employed persons and independent contractors
• How to deal with existing contracts and employees
• Future appropriations for the E-Verify Program

This session will offer guidance to contractors, subcontractors and other parties who work on federal government projects. Whether you are already enrolled in E-Verify in anticipation of a contract award, but have not yet verified employees or if you're already enrolled and familiar with the verification process, this session will reinforce existing rules and will cover the option of verifying all employees versus only those employees assigned to federal contract work. Attendance certificate with 2.0 hours of training credit will be provided.
