The immigration service announced on October 3, 2014 that the agency will soon delete E-Verify records that are more than 10 years old. Any companies that have been using E-Verify for more than ten years should immediately take note. As of January 1, 2015, data from before December 31, 2004 will not be available. If a company wants older records, it must download a Historic Records Report before December 31, 2014. This deletion process will be repeated annually, and the government says they will advise the public each year when the newest set of Historic Records Reports is available.
