What happens if the Nevada Secretary of State rejects my apostille request?

No, E-Verify does not replace Form I-9—all employers must complete I-9 for every employee regardless of E-Verify participation. E-Verify is a supplemental electronic system operated by the Department of Homeland Security and Social Security Administration that allows employers to verify employee work authorization by comparing I-9 information against federal databases, but it functions as an additional compliance step after I-9 completion, not a substitute for the form itself. E-Verify is mandatory for federal contractors, subcontractors, and employers in states with mandatory E-Verify laws (Arizona, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Utah as of 2025), while remaining voluntary for other private employers. Nevada does not mandate E-Verify, making it optional for most Las Vegas and Henderson businesses unless they hold federal contracts.

The E-Verify process requires employers to first complete Section 2 of the I-9 form by examining employee identity and work authorization documents, then enter the I-9 data into the E-Verify system within 3 business days of the employee's hire date. E-Verify returns either an "Employment Authorized" result confirming the employee is authorized to work, or a "Tentative Nonconfirmation" (TNC) requiring the employee to resolve discrepancies with SSA or DHS within 8 federal working days. Employers cannot take adverse action against employees based on TNC results alone—the employee must be given the opportunity to contest the finding. E-Verify participation creates additional documentation requirements including retention of case results, employee rights notifications, and anti-discrimination compliance, as improper use of E-Verify (such as pre-employment screening or selective verification based on national origin) violates federal law and triggers separate penalties.
