backgroundchecks.com Legislation and Compliance Update - Louisiana Enacts E-Verify Legislation
July 29th, 2011
On July 1, 2011, Governor Bobby Jindal signed HB 646 into law, creating Act 402. Act 402 revises Louisiana’s existing immigration provisions to require employers to perform some form of employment eligibility verification to check on the immigration status of their employees.
To perform employment eligibility verification, employers can either use E-Verify or they can keep the following items in their files: Copies of employees’ photo identifications and one other document that shows the workers are in the country legally (e.g. U.S. birth certificate or birth card, naturalization certificate, certificate of citizenship, alien registration receipt card, or U.S. immigration form I-94 with employment authorized stamp).
