E-Verify+

Employment Eligibility Verification (Form I-9 & E-Verify+)

Welcome to NKY Health! As an employer, we are required by federal law to verify the identity and employment authorization of all new employees. We utilize the official E-Verify+ service from USCIS to complete this process electronically. 

Required Verification Steps

The employment eligibility process begins after your offer of employment has been accepted and signed.

1. System Initiation: Our HR team will initiate the process within E-Verify+.

2. Access: You will receive an email from E-Verify+ (USCIS) with instructions to create or log into your myUSCIS Account. From this account, you will access E-Verify+ and accept the Terms of Service to begin your Form I-9.

3. Complete Form I-9: You will be prompted to electronically complete Section 1 of Form I-9 on or before your first day of employment.

4. In-Person Document Review: You must present your physical, unexpired documents to an HR representative for examination. This review must be completed no later than your first day of employment.

   • HR will reach out to you to schedule a brief time to come in to complete this step, either prior to or on your official start date.

   • Note: The electronic submission of documents into the system is not a substitute for the required physical review.

5. E-Verify Check: The validated information will then be submitted to the E-Verify system to confirm your work authorization.

Addressing Tentative Non-Confirmations (TNCs)

In the event E-Verify finds a mismatch with government records (a Tentative Non-Confirmation or TNC), you will be notified immediately.

• Your Right to Contest: You have the right to contest the TNC with the appropriate government agency (DHS or SSA). You must initiate this contest within eight (8) federal workdays of receiving the notification.

• Protection: While you are actively contesting the TNC, you may not be terminated or suffer any adverse action based solely on the TNC.

• Final Result: If the TNC is successfully contested, the case is closed. If you choose not to contest or if the case results in a Final Non-Confirmation, NKY Health is legally required to take necessary action, up to and including employment termination.
