E-Verify_Affidavit.pdf

This is an E-Verify Affidavit document required by Pinellas County, Florida for the Solid Waste Administration Building HVAC Renovation project (ITB-C #26-0394-ITB-C). The affidavit certifies that the contractor company does not employ, contract with, or subcontract with unauthorized aliens and maintains full compliance with Florida Statute Section 448.095. All employees hired on or after January 1, 2021 must have their work authorization status verified through the E-Verify system, and contractors must provide proof of registration in the E-Verify system. The document requires the contractor's signature, printed name, date, and Federal Work Authorization User Identification Number, along with the name and number of the Pinellas County contract. The affidavit must be notarized before a notary public, with the notary acknowledging the instrument either through physical presence or online notarization and providing their commission expiration date.

This mandatory compliance document establishes a binding certification of the contractor's adherence to federal work authorization requirements. The affidavit serves as a prerequisite submission for all bidders on the HVAC renovation project and must be executed by an authorized officer or agent of the contractor company. Failure to comply with E-Verify registration and the submission of a properly notarized affidavit will result in the contractor being deemed non-responsive to the solicitation. The document is part of a comprehensive compliance package that includes Foreign Country of Concern affidavits, Common Carrier attestations, and Human Trafficking affidavits, all of which must be notarized and submitted with bid packages.
