Terms of Use

Security

You are entering an official United States Government System, which may be used only for authorized purposes. Websites for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have been established in accordance with the Interim ISS Directive, which includes regular risk assessments and certifications. The Chief Information Officer of the Department of Homeland Security is the final authority on security requirements and controls for Homeland Security Websites. Every effort is made to ensure the quality, integrity and utility of the information on this site while ensuring privacy and security. Only authorized personnel may alter Web pages. Unauthorized use of this system may result in criminal, civil and/or administrative penalties.

Your Use of Self Check

Your use of Self Check is for the purpose of learning about your work authorization status and the accuracy of your related government records only. By using the Self Check service, you agree that you will not submit biographical or employment authorization document data that relates to anyone other than yourself. You also agree that you will not run a Self Check query at the request of another party or attempt to use the results of your Self Check query to prove to another party that you are authorized to work or eligible for admission to any organization or receipt of any benefit.

Information You Submit

Information from the work authorization query part of Self Check will not be shared outside of DHS except for the E-Verify data sharing requirements detailed under the Basic Pilot statute. This includes sharing work authorization query data with the Social Security Administration to facilitate the Self Check mismatch resolution process, as well as sharing data for law enforcement purposes as described in the E-Verify PIA dated May 4, 2010.

The contract for identity proofing permits them to use this information only in very limited ways such as fraud monitoring and prevention, and as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. This data may be kept for one year and is also reflected as a soft inquiry on your credit report for one year. A soft inquiry has no impact on your credit score and can be seen only by you and the credit bureau. It is required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act to assist in monitoring access to credit files.

Privacy Statement

Our Privacy Commitment to You

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is committed to maintaining the privacy of your Personally Identifiable Information (PII) in accordance with USCIS standards.

Your Expectation of Privacy

USCIS understands that you expect your privacy and personal information to be protected. That is why the Self Check service is designed to require that you authenticate your identity before we allow you to access the information we have about you.

Collection, Retention, and Use of Information about You

The identity assurance questions asked and the answers you submit are not provided to USCIS. USCIS does not retain any personally identifiable information in its Self Check DHS logs. Only transaction ID and error codes are retained to facilitate troubleshooting and system management. Third party data providers retain logs of access to your personal information in order to comply with their legal obligations to protect personally identifiable information in their possession per the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The terms and conditions that define the contract for identity proofing permits them to use this information only in very limited ways such as fraud monitoring and prevention within their own database. The Fair Credit Reporting Act also mandates restrictions on the sharing of any data obtained by the third party data provider.

The identity proofing process relies on data already in the possession of the third party data provider. If you fail identity proofing, only a set of error codes will be returned to USCIS. USCIS does not retain the questions, your answers, or any identifying information supplied by you during the identity authentication process. If you decide to cancel the identity proofing process during the session, or if the session times out because of inactivity, the personal information entered by you and any questions generated by the identity authentication provider is not retained in Self Check. If the answers to the questions match the information contained in the commercial database you will be allowed to continue through the Self Check process. If you successfully pass identity proofing, the personal information you enter persists for the purpose of employment eligibility verification.

Your name, date of birth, and Social Security number (if you provided it during the identity assurance step) will be persisted and will pre-populate the employment eligibility check. Next, you will be required to enter additional information based on the documentation you would present to an employer for processing in E-Verify. The information collected from you is dependent on your citizenship status and your document choices but could include: Social Security Number; Citizenship Status; Alien Number; Passport Number; I-94 Number; and /or Permanent Resident or Employment Authorization Document (EAD) Card Number. This is the information that is used to determine employment authorization in the E-Verify process. This process is the same process as the basic E-Verify query and is described in the E-Verify PIA, dated May 4, 2010.

We reserve the right to change this Privacy Statement at any time.
