beyond what is required for Form I–9
completion. Further, employers
participating in E-Verify who receive an
E-Verify case result of ‘‘Tentative
Nonconfirmation’’ (TNC) must promptly
inform employees of the TNC and give
such employees an opportunity to
contest the TNC. A TNC case result
means that the information entered into
E-Verify from Form I–9 differs from
Federal or state government records.
Employers may not terminate,
suspend, delay training, withhold pay,
lower pay, or take any adverse action
against an employee based on the
employee’s decision to contest a TNC or
because the case is still pending with EVerify. A Final Nonconfirmation (FNC)
case result is received when E-Verify
cannot verify an employee’s
employment eligibility. An employer
may terminate employment based on a
case result of FNC. Work-authorized
employees who receive an FNC may call
USCIS for assistance at 888–897–7781
(TTY 877–875–6028). For more
information about E-Verify-related
discrimination or to report an employer
for discrimination in the E-Verify
process based on citizenship,
immigration status, or national origin,
contact IER’s Worker Hotline at 800–
255–7688 (TTY 800–237–2515).
Additional information about proper
nondiscriminatory Form I–9 and EVerify procedures is available on the
IER website at https://www.justice.gov/
ier and the USCIS website at https://

Note Regarding Federal, State, and
Local Government Agencies (Such as
Departments of Motor Vehicles)
While Federal Government agencies
must follow the guidelines laid out by
the Federal Government, state and local
government agencies establish their own
rules and guidelines when granting
certain benefits. Each state may have
different laws, requirements, and
determinations about what documents
you need to provide to prove eligibility
for certain benefits. Whether you are
applying for a Federal, state, or local
government benefit, you may need to
provide the government agency with
documents that show you are a TPS
beneficiary and/or show you are
authorized to work based on TPS.
Examples of such documents are:
(1) Your current EAD;
(2) A copy of your Form I–797C for
your application to renew your current
EAD providing an automatic extension
of your currently expired or expiring
EAD;
(3) A copy of your Application for
Temporary Protected Status Notice of
VerDate Sep<11>2014
23:42 Dec 14, 2017
Jkt 244001
Action (Form I–797) for this reregistration; and
(4) A copy of your past or current
Application for Temporary Protected
Status Notice of Action (Form I–797), if
you received one from USCIS.
Check with the government agency
regarding which document(s) the agency
will accept. Some benefit-granting
agencies use the USCIS Systematic
Alien Verification for Entitlements
(SAVE) program to confirm the current
immigration status of applicants for
public benefits. In most cases, SAVE
provides an automated electronic
response to benefit-granting agencies
within seconds, but, occasionally,
verification can be delayed. You can
check the status of your SAVE
verification by using CaseCheck at the
following link: https://save.uscis.gov/
casecheck/, then by clicking the ‘‘Check
Your Case’’ button. CaseCheck is a free
service that lets you follow the progress
of your SAVE verification using your
date of birth and one immigration
identifier number. If an agency has
denied your application based solely or
in part on a SAVE response, the agency
must offer you the opportunity to appeal
the decision in accordance with the
agency’s procedures. If the agency has
received and acted upon or will act
upon a SAVE verification and you do
not believe the response is correct, you
may make an InfoPass appointment for
an in-person interview at a local USCIS
office. Detailed information on how to
make corrections, make an appointment,
or submit a written request to correct
records under the Freedom of
Information Act can be found on the
SAVE website at https://www.uscis.gov/

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, invite
the public to comment on the following
applications for a permit to conduct
activities intended to enhance the
survival of endangered or threatened
species. Federal law prohibits certain
activities with endangered species
unless a permit is obtained.
ADDRESSES:
Background
The Endangered Species Act of 1973,
as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.;
ESA), prohibits certain activities with
endangered and threatened species
unless the activities are specifically
authorized by a Federal permit. The
ESA and our implementing regulations
in part 17 of title 50 of the Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) provide for
the issuance of such permits and require
that we invite public comment before
issuing permits for activities involving
endangered species.
A permit granted by us under section
10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA authorizes the
permittee to conduct activities with U.S.
endangered or threatened species for
scientific purposes, enhancement of
propagation or survival, or interstate
commerce (the latter only in the event
that it facilitates scientific purposes or
enhancement of propagation or
survival). Our regulations implementing
section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA for these
permits are found at 50 CFR 17.22 for
endangered wildlife species, 50 CFR
17.32 for threatened wildlife species, 50
CFR 17.62 for endangered plant species,
and 50 CFR 17.72 for threatened plant
species.

Federal agencies and the public to
