This is an Employment Eligibility Verification System (E-Verify) Affidavit required by the City of Fort Myers, Florida, as a condition of vendor registration, solicitation response, and contract entry. The affidavit mandates compliance with Section 448.095 of the Florida Statutes regarding employment eligibility verification. Vendors, contractors, and their authorized representatives must attest under oath before a notary public that they are registered with the E-Verify system and will maintain such registration for the duration of any contract. The affidavit applies to all newly hired employees and extends to all subcontractors, who must provide written attestation that they do not employ, contract with, or subcontract with unauthorized aliens. The document requires completion with specific information including the affiant's name and title, the contractor or firm name, the date of the affidavit, county of Lee, state of Florida, and notary acknowledgment with seal.

Non-compliance with E-Verify requirements results in significant penalties, including vendor termination, disqualification from solicitation awards, contract denial, or cancellation of active contracts. If a subcontractor knowingly violates the statute, the subcontract must be terminated immediately. The City of Fort Myers reserves the right to request supporting documentation from vendors at any time to verify compliance. Any challenge to termination under this provision must be filed within 20 calendar days of the termination date. This affidavit requirement applies to all solicitations released by the City of Fort Myers and is a mandatory precondition for participation in any competitive bidding process or contract award.
