Why does my employer ask for papers showing work authorization? Since 1986, the immigration law requires employers to only hire workers who have authorization by the U.S. government to work in this country. The law requires employers to check (verify) the identity and work eligibility of each employee.
Employers must seek labor certification through the U.S. DOL. The foreign labor certification process is the responsibility of the employer, not the employee. Once a permanent labor certification application has been approved by the DOL, the employer will need to seek the immigration authorization from USCIS.
