Alabama Immingration Law Compliance Guidelines

Teachers before doing business with anyone in the US involving government money, you must be sure to comply with the new immigration law for Alabama.  This would also include students who will be participating in the FCCLA Star Events.  It could also be use as an instructional tool with your students, when teaching concepts dealing with entreprenurership and/or human resources within a business, since, it deals with the hiring and firing of employees.
Alabama Immigration Law Compliance Guidelines for contractors and vendors doing business with government agencies in Alabama.

Section 9 of Alabama Act No. 2011-535 entitled the “Beason-Hammon Alabama Taxpayer and Citizen Protection Act” requires that, as a condition for the award of a contract to a business entity or employer that employs one or more employees working in Alabama, the business entity or employer must provide an affidavit and documentation of enrollment in the Federal E-Verify program. During the performance of the contract, the business entity or employer shall participate in the E-Verify program and shall verify every employee that is required to be verified according to the applicable federal rules and regulations. The attached Affidavit For Business Entity/Employer/Contractor and the entity’s E-Verify Memorandum of Understanding must be included with the bid or contract. If you do not believe these requirements are applicable to your entity, include an explanation justifying such exemption.

An entity can obtain the E-Verify Memorandum of Understanding upon completion in the E-Verify enrollment process located at the  
Federal  Web site or at the Alabama Department of Homeland Security  Web site. The Alabama Department of Homeland Security  has established an E-Verify employer agent account for any business entity or employer with 25 or fewer employees that will provide a participating business entity or employer with the required documentation of enrollment in the E-Verify program.
