PHOENIX, Arizona -- The online program Arizona businesses will use to verify job applicants' legal status can now serve millions of additional companies, a federal representative said Monday.
Businesses in the state will be required to use the program starting Jan. 1 under the employer-sanctions law passed by the Legislature this year.
The Basic Pilot Program, an online program that reports legal status within seconds, was overhauled this year to prepare for federal legislation that was never enacted, said Michael Mayhew, a representative with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Verification Division.
