MN-Minn. audit to probe E-Verify immigration status database
Minn. audit to probe E-Verify immigration status database
June 8, 2009
Winona Daily News
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Legislative Auditor James Nobles weighs in Wednesday on the federal electronic system used by employers to check employees’ immigration status.
The audit looks at E-Verify, the system that compares identifying information from employment forms against Department of Homeland Security and Social Security Administration databases.
Gov. Tim Pawlenty ordered all state agencies to use the system starting in early 2008.
The executive order also applies to some contractors doing business with the state and recipients of state business incentives.
The audit will examine E-Verify’s accuracy, effectiveness and costs to Minnesota employers.
Federal reports have criticized the system, saying it has the potential to be misused by employers and can’t detect fraud if someone uses genuine documents from another person.
