ATTACHMENT D EEV CERTIFICATION.pdf

This document is an EEV (Employment Eligibility Verification) Certification and Agreement form issued by the Mississippi Transportation Commission, involving multiple state agencies including the Department of Employment Security, State Tax Commission, and Department of Human Services. The document requires vendors or contractors to verify compliance with the Mississippi Employment Protection Act and federal work authorization programs, specifically the E-Verify system operated by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. Vendors must electronically verify information of newly hired employees and maintain records of such compliance.

The certification requires vendors to agree to inform the Mississippi Transportation Commission if they are no longer registered or participating in the work authorization program. The document includes provisions for potential penalties, including cancellation of state or public contracts, loss of licenses or permits, and potential felony prosecution for knowingly or recklessly accepting employment for compensation from unauthorized aliens. Vendors must provide an EEV Company Identification Number and have an authorized officer or agent sign the document, with the signature to be notarized, demonstrating a formal commitment to employment eligibility verification protocols.
