About this file
This is an Employment Eligibility Verification System (E-Verify) Affidavit required by the City of Fort Myers for all vendors, bidders, and contractors participating in solicitations or entering into contracts with the municipality. The affidavit mandates compliance with Florida Statute Section 448.095, which governs employment eligibility verification requirements. By registering as a vendor, submitting a response to a solicitation, or entering into a contract, all parties must affirm and represent that they are registered with the E-Verify system and will continue to utilize it as required by state law. Compliance includes verifying the work authorization status of all newly hired employees through E-Verify and requiring all subcontractors to provide affidavits attesting that they do not employ, contract with, or subcontract with unauthorized aliens.
Failure to comply with E-Verify requirements will result in vendor termination, disqualification from solicitation awards, denial of contract entry, or cancellation of active contracts. If a subcontractor knowingly violates the statute, the subcontract must be terminated immediately. The affidavit must be notarized and signed by an authorized representative of the bidding entity, with the notary public providing acknowledgment and affixing their seal. The City of Fort Myers reserves the right to request supporting documentation at any time to verify compliance. Any challenge to termination under this provision must be filed no later than 20 calendar days after the date of termination.
