Abstract: myE-Verify (previously E-Verify Self Check) allows workers in the United States to enter data into the E-Verify system to ensure that the information relating to their eligibility to work is correct and accurate. This is necessary so that workers in the United States can correct their records before a hiring decision is made. This will lead to a more reliable and accurate E-Verify system that works better for both employers and employees.
