The verification process requires that all new employees complete and sign an Employment Eligibility Verification Form (Form I-9) certifying United States citizenship or authorization to work in the United States.  It also requires that employers examine specific documents that the employee must provide within two days of starting work or within twenty days if proof is presented that request has been made to the appropriate agency for the necessary documents.
