The Risk of Non-Compliance in Government Operations

Public agencies and vendors face elevated scrutiny. ICE audits have increased in frequency, and government entities often lack the time, tools, or centralized oversight to manage I-9 compliance consistently.

Non-compliance can lead to:

Loss of eligibility for federal contracts
Funding delays or denials
Negative audit findings or fines
Damage to public trust

Managing 1099s and Subcontractors Under FAR

If you’re a federal contractor, you don’t need to complete Form I-9 for true independent contractors. But subcontractor companies must verify their own employees using E-Verify if:

The contract value exceeds $3,500
Work is for services or construction
Your responsibilities:
Include the FAR E-Verify clause in eligible contracts
Confirm your subs are enrolled in E-Verify
Never run E-Verify for someone else’s employee

Compliance Can Be Your Competitive Edge

Many agencies and contractors lose bids due to compliance gaps. Proactive I-9 management helps you:
Win government RFPs
Maintain public trust and funding eligibility
Pass third-party audits

Government I-9 and E-Verify Compliance

Do public agencies need to use E-Verify?

Yes. Many states require E-Verify for public employers. Federal contracts with the FAR clause also mandate E-Verify use.

Do I need to verify existing employees for federal contracts?

Yes—within 90 days of contract award, or at time of assignment, if the FAR clause applies.

Can we verify remote employees using i9 Intelligence?

Yes. We offer a fully managed remote I-9 verification service for public agencies and contractors.

What if my subcontractor isn’t using E-Verify?

You may be out of compliance if the FAR clause applies. Prime contractors must verify that eligible subs are enrolled.
