Attachment 3-Contractor immigration certification.pdf

This is a Contractor Certification form regarding compliance with the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, As Amended, required for federal contracts with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

The certification requires contractors to comply with all legal provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 and related laws enforced by Homeland Security, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and the U.S. Department of Labor concerning non-immigrant foreign nationals working on VA contracts. Contractors must not knowingly employ, contract, or subcontract with illegal aliens or foreign nationals in violation of their immigration status while providing services to the VA. Additionally, contractors must comply with all "E-Verify" requirements consistent with Executive Order 12989 and applicable Federal Acquisition Regulations. Non-compliance results in prohibition from working at the contractor's place of business supporting VA patient referrals and forms the basis for contract termination for breach. Contractors must obtain similar certifications from their subcontractors. The form requires signature, date, typed name and title, and company name. The document includes a warning that making false, fictitious, or fraudulent certifications may result in prosecution under 18 U.S.C. 1001.
