E-Verify

The Federal Government has mandated that any organization that is a federal contractor must use the E-Verify program, which verifies the documents that are used to establish identity and employment eligibility, beginning January 15, 2009. The Research Foundation, (RF CUNY) and City University of New York, (CUNY) are federal contractors and are enrolled in the program. E-Verification must be done by the third calendar day from a new hire’s actual first day of work, just like the I-9. There are no exceptions to this requirement. 

Timesheets

• E-mail reminders to approve timesheets will no longer be sent to project directors.
• Please make sure that your timesheet is submitted at least one day before it is due at the Research Foundation.
• Contact your project director via email or phone to inform them that your timesheet is ready for their approval and submission to the Research Foundation.
• Your supervisor must approve all timesheets no later than 5 pm on the due date.
