About this file

This is a Contractor Affidavit document for RFQ 2026-02 issued by the Town of Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, requiring compliance with the South Carolina Illegal Immigration Reform Act (Title 8, Chapter 14 of the South Carolina Code of Laws). The affidavit applies to both construction and non-construction contractors and mandates that all contractors certify their compliance with state immigration requirements prior to contract award. Contractors must acknowledge their commitment to register and participate in the federal E-Verify program to verify employment authorization for all new employees and require the same participation from subcontractors and sub-subcontractors. The affidavit requires contractors to provide documentation upon request to establish either that Title 8, Chapter 14 is inapplicable to their operations or that they remain in compliance throughout the contract term.

The document serves as a certification requirement for contract eligibility and establishes enforcement mechanisms through South Carolina Code Annotated Section 8-14-60, which classifies knowing submission of false, fictitious, or fraudulent documents as a felony punishable by fines and imprisonment of up to five years. Contractors must flow down compliance requirements to all subcontractors and sub-subcontractors through contractual language, creating a cascading obligation throughout the supply chain. The affidavit does not address pricing, set-asides, or funding sources, as it functions solely as a compliance certification mechanism required for participation in the Town of Hilton Head Island's procurement process.
