Annual E-Verify Records Disposal Scheduled by USCIS for January 6, 2025
On January 6, 2025, United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will dispose of E-Verify records that are over 10 years old.
To minimize security and privacy risks related to storing personal information, USCIS annually disposes of E-Verify records that are 10 years or older. Employers using E-Verify have until January 5, 2025, to download any historical records. After that date, records not updated since December 31, 2014, will be permanently deleted.
Employers who utilize E-Verify are required to record or print and file the E-Verify case verification number for each corresponding Form I-9. Please note that Certiphi Screening retains this information within our portal for our E-Verify clients, and this process does not affect cases created or maintained in your myCertiphi portal as those records are securely stored.
Instructions on how to download the Historic Records Report can be found using these resources:

If you have any questions, please contact your sales executive, account manager, or our customer service team.
