ATTACHMENT D EEV CERTIFICATION.pdf

Attachment D is an EEV (Employment Eligibility Verification) Certification and Agreement document from 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 contracting with the Mississippi Transportation Commission 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.

The certification requires vendors to electronically verify employment eligibility for newly hired employees using the E-Verify program, maintain records of compliance, and provide verification documentation to the Mississippi Transportation Commission. The document includes provisions for potential penalties, such as contract cancellation and legal consequences for knowingly violating employment eligibility requirements, with potential fines ranging from $1,000 to $10,000 and possible additional felony prosecution. Vendors must complete the form, providing their company identification number and an authorized agent's signature, and have the document notarized to confirm their commitment to employment eligibility verification.
