About this file
This is a process guide document issued by the Colorado State Controller's Office and Division of Labor establishing contractor participation requirements for public contracts for services with Colorado state agencies and political subdivisions under Senate Bill 08-193, effective May 13, 2008. The guide outlines two compliance options for contractors entering into or renewing public service contracts: participation in the federal E-Verify program or enrollment in the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment Program. Contractors must select one option to demonstrate employment eligibility verification procedures. The Department Program option requires contractors to complete a Notice of Participation form, distribute copies to the Division of Labor and contracting agencies, execute a Contractor Affirmation within 20 days of hiring each new employee performing work under the contract, and maintain copies of identity documents required for federal I-9 Form completion. All documentation must be retained for the duration of the contract term and employee employment term, respectively.
Contractors participating in the Department Program must consent to audits conducted by the Department to assess compliance with the law, which may include random audits of contracting state agencies, political subdivisions, and contractors themselves to review required materials and documentation. The guide provides specific mailing addresses and website resources for obtaining required forms and submission instructions, including contact information for the Colorado Division of Labor located at 633 17th Street, Suite 200, Denver, Colorado 80202-3660. No pricing terms, set-asides, or funding information is included in this guide, as it serves solely as an instructional document for compliance with Colorado's Public Contracts for Services and Illegal Aliens Law under 8-17.5-101 and 102, C.R.S.

Public Contracts for Services Guide for Contractor Participation in the
E-Verify Program OR the Department Program 8-17.5-101 & 102, C.R.S.
I. Statutory Authority and Background
Effective May 13, 2008, contractors who enter into or renew a public contract for services with Colorado state agencies or political subdivisions must participate in either the federal E-Verify program, OR the newly created Colorado Department of Labor and Employment Program (“Department Program”). The option to enroll in the new Department Program instead of E-Verify was created by Colorado State Senate Bill 08-193, which amended the Public Contracts for Services and Illegal Aliens Law, 8-17.5-101 and 102, C.R.S.
II. Public Contracts for Services Program Choices
Contractors covered by the law shall participate in either:
1. The Federal E-Verify Program. (If you select this option, you do not need to perform the steps listed in Section III below.) For more information on E-Verify, see: www.uscis.gov and www.uscis.gov/files/nativedocuments/E4_english.pdf
OR
2. The Department Program (described below).
III. Department Program Requirements
Contractors who chose to participate in the Department Program (instead of using E-Verify) shall take the following steps:
1. Notice Form. The Contractor shall complete the “Notice of Participation in the Department
Program for Public Contracts for Services” (“Notice Form”) located at either of these websites:
State Controller’s Office:
http://www.colorado.gov/dpa/dfp/sco/contracts/Unauthorized_Immigrants.htm Division of Labor: www.coworkforce.com/lab/pcs/ http://www.uscis.gov/ http://www.uscis.gov/files/nativedocuments/E4_english.pdf http://www.coworkforce.com/lab/pcs/default.asp
2. Distribution of Notice Form. Retain the original Notice Form. You must distribute copies as follows:
a. One copy sent to the Division of Labor by mail or in-person:
Colorado Division of Labor 633 17th Street, Suite 200 Denver, Colorado 80202-3660
b. One copy sent with the contract to the contracting state agency(s) or political subdivision(s).
3. Contractor Affirmation. Complete a Contractor Affirmation within 20 days after hiring each employee who is newly hired to perform work under the public contract for services.
The individual signing the Contractor Affirmation shall have signature authority for the Contractor. An example of an acceptable Contractor Affirmation is located at either of these two websites:
State Controller’s Office:
Division of Labor: www.coworkforce.com/lab/pcs/
Retain the original notarized affirmation and send a copy to the State agency(s) or political subdivision(s) listed in the contract. The Contractor shall retain the affirmation for the term of employment of the new employee.
4. Copies of Identity Documents. The Contractor shall retain copies of the identity documents for each employee who is newly hired to perform work under the public contract for services.
These are the documents required by 8 U.S.C. Sec 1324a to complete the federal I-9 Form:
Federal I-9 Form with instructions: www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-9.pdf
Retain these copies of the identity documents for the term of employment of the new employee.
5. Audits. A contractor shall consent to Department audits to assess compliance with the law.
The Department may conduct random audits of contracting State agencies or political subdivisions to review materials required for submission by the contractor, and of contractors to review their documents.
6. Retention Requirements.
The Contractor and state agency(s) or political subdivision(s) shall retain the Notice Form for the term of the contract. The Contractor shall retain the affirmation and copies of the I-9 identity documents for the term of employment of each new employee.
