About this file

This is a contractor certification form required by the Department of Veterans Affairs for compliance with the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, as amended. The certification requires contractors to comply with all legal provisions under the Immigration and Nationality Act and related laws enforced by Homeland Security, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and the U.S. Department of Labor as they pertain to non-immigrant foreign nationals working on Department of Veterans Affairs contracts or subcontracts while providing services to VA patient referrals.

The contractor must certify that it will not knowingly employ, contract, or subcontract with illegal aliens or foreign nationals who are in violation of their immigration status or who have failed to maintain compliance with the terms and conditions of their U.S. admission. Contractors are required to comply with all E-Verify requirements consistent with Executive Order 12989 and applicable Federal Acquisition Regulations. Non-compliance may result in the Department of Veterans Affairs prohibiting non-compliant foreign nationals from working at the contractor's place of business servicing VA patient referrals and may form the basis for contract termination for breach. The contractor must obtain similar certifications from subcontractors. The form includes signature lines for the contractor's authorized representative, date, typed name and title, and company name. False certification is subject to prosecution under 18 U.S.C. Section 1001.
