E-Verify Issues

However, an I-9 user feels that all the information is correct and resubmits the I-9 to E-Verify, an employees status will be returned as TNC (tentative non confirmation).TNCs must be dealt with immediately. Once an employee has decided to contest a TNC, the I-9 User must check on a regular basis to make sure that an employee does not move to an FNC (Final Non Confirmation).Employment Authorized determinations must be closed out.
