PRESIDENT E CEO
DAVID BOWDEN During this past year the CSO performed for more than 30,000 adults and
ARTISTIC DIRECTO children at subscription concerts, educational concerts, and free public
concerts such as CarmelFest. The CSO's upcoming season, marks the
37 year of providing outstanding orchestral concerts to the citizens of
Carmel and surrounding communities. The Carmel Symphony Orchestra
is dedicated to enhancing our community's quality of life in a fiscally
responsible manner through creative, artistically excellent performances
and educational experiences for diverse audiences of all ages.
For the current season, funding from the City of Carmel enabled the CSO
to continue presenting guest artists with a national (and international)

reputation such as renowned soprano, Angela Brown; Van Cliburn
Competition finalist, Di Wu; violin prodigy, Stephen Kim, organ virtuoso,
Cameron Carpenter, and the Indianapolis Children's Choir.
Presenting artists of this caliber coupled with performing in the Palladium
resulted in this year's audience averaging over 1,150 per concert. In
addition, this season saw ticket sales increase from $150,000 last year to
a projected $185,000 this year. The season prior to moving to the
Palladium, ticket sales were $91,000. This means over the past two years
the CSO has doubled earned income from ticket sales.
The CSO is extremely proud of the fact that approximately 30% of the
annual budget is earned income from ticket sales and contracted
performances. This places the CSO well above the national average for
performing arts organizations. In addition, the CSO receives support from
the business community through concert sponsorships, gifts, matching
contributions, and in -kind donations of services. Additionally, 100% of the
board, 100% of the staff, and a vast majority of the musicians contribute
to the annual fund.
The highlight of the up- coming season will be internationally acclaimed
soprano and recording artist, Sylvia McNair, singing holiday favorites. In
addition, the CSO will again present Stephen Kim, the remarkable 16
year -old violinist who is receiving rave reviews throughout the world; the
Wright Brothers, in a concert honoring America; and Cameron Carpenter
as CSO Artist in Residence. He will be continuing his collaboration with
the CSO to create and premiere new works for organ and orchestra
commissioned by the CSO for Cameron Carpenter. These new
arrangements will be based on popular and jazz standards. The 2012 -13
Season concludes with Beethoven's awe inspiring Ninth Symphony.
The 2012 -13 season will feature six concerts showcasing the CSO in the
Palladium, as well as a separate Family Fun! concert. As a result of our
collaborations in concert and in recording with Michael Feinstein and our
performance at the Gala Opening Concert, the CSO has reaffirmed our
position as the ensemble of choice to provide accompaniment for various
artists, including Feinstein, appearing at the Palladium.
Funding from the City of Carmel helps to underwrite the CSO's
subscription series of six "family- friendly" concerts (families with young
children are encouraged to attend and children are made to feel welcome
at all CSO concerts), and educational concerts for all 5 th grade students in
Carmel -Clay schools, as well as other area school systems, private schools,
and home schooled students. The separate Family Fun! concert features
the winner of the CSO's Annual Young Artist Competition. This concert
City of Carmel

also offers "children" from two to 92 an opportunity to sit among the
orchestra musicians to watch music being made up close. And, after the
concert, the excitement spills over into the lobby where the newly inspired
can try out orchestral instruments at a musical petting zoo. City funding
also sponsors the CSO's performance at CarmelFest on the 4th of July
and at various other civic and community events.
As a "family- friendly orchestra," the Carmel Symphony Orchestra
programs concerts that entertain and educate the broadest possible
audience, including audiences who do not traditionally attend orchestra
concerts. The CSO has been successful in attracting a broader age range
than the typical 40 -60 year -old symphony orchestra patron. The eclectic
programming, use of multi -media presentations, affordable ticket price
and KidsPASS program (high school students and younger attend for $5)
attracts family audiences from broad ethnic and socioeconomic
backgrounds. At a recent CSO concert one -third of the audience was
comprised of children 12 and under. The CSO has successfully positioned
its concerts as accessible, affordable family entertainment in a way that
can compete favorably with movies and other popular forms of family
entertainment. As a result of our ticket pricing and the KidsPASS, CSO
concerts draw more children and young adults than most other major
Indiana orchestras. During the last season the CSO performed for more
than 30,000 people. Furthermore, between our two major educational
initiatives (Sounds Exciting! concert and the KidsPASS program) more
than 3,000 children under the age of fourteen heard the CSO in concert
this past season for free.
The CSO provides quality live orchestral performances that contribute to
the artistic growth of Carmel and the surrounding multi county
metropolitan area. The CSO's focus on "family- friendly" educational
programming is attracting new audiences and educating listeners who will
become the arts patrons of this century. The CSO season is designed to
enhance the educational mission of the orchestra. The education
program has three key components: the Youth PASS, the Sounds Exciting!
Elementary Concerts, and the Annual Young Artists Concerto
Competition.
The "family- friendly" atmosphere of our concerts has become the CSO's
brand. Next season we are expanding our KidsPASS program and renaming
it YouthPASS. The pass will now include students through high school
allowing them to attend any concert for just $5.
The Educational Concerts Sounds Exciting! is designed especially for
elementary school students, who are at the age when they are deciding if
they want to play a musical instrument and participate in school band and
City of Carmel

orchestra. Youth concerts draw more than 1,500 students from Hamilton
and surrounding counties to Carmel High School for the performances that
showcase a wide range of orchestral repertoire. After this concert, teachers
are surveyed. Additionally, the CSO has developed an advisory committee of
music teachers from area schools to help the orchestra plan future programs
and projects that will be a resource for teachers to use in supplementing the
state music curriculum.
The CSO nurtures the careers of young musicians through its annual
Young Artist Concerto Competition. With corporate sponsor Meridian
Music, the CSO conducts a juried competition open to any instrumental
music student who lives in a county contiguous to Hamilton or Marion
counties. Typically this competition draws applications from more than 40
talented elementary, junior high and high school students. The winner is
presented in concert as a soloist with the orchestra. The winner also
receives a $1,000 prize.
With support from the City of Carmel, in 2007 the CSO was able to
engage marketing counsel, resulting in the new brand including logo and
graphics package implemented during the 2008 -09 season. This
distinctive look and an increased emphasis on marketing and public
relations from this 2007 initiative has resulted in much wider visibility for
the CSO and the City of Carmel. The CSO is currently in the process of
restructuring its development initiative. During 2012, we anticipate hiring
a development professional to further enhance the fundraising capacity of
the orchestra. In addition to funds provided by the city, the CSO is
supported by a donor base made up of people of different socio- economic
backgrounds and age groups. We are very proud of the fact that during
these still struggling economic times, the CSO saw a 10% increase in
individual donations.
Funding from the City of Carmel will enable the Carmel Symphony
Orchestra to continue to provide "family- friendly" symphonic music of the
highest artistic level at prices that are affordable for all the residents of our
community especially families and seniors.
Sincerely,
Alan Davis
President CEO

reputation such as renowned soprano, Angela Brown; Van Cliburn

performing arts organizations. In addition, the CSO receives support from
the business community through concert sponsorships, gifts, matching
contributions, and in -kind donations of services. Additionally, 100% of the
board, 100% of the staff, and a vast majority of the musicians contribute
to the annual fund.
The highlight of the up- coming season will be internationally acclaimed
soprano and recording artist, Sylvia McNair, singing holiday favorites. In
addition, the CSO will again present Stephen Kim, the remarkable 16
year -old violinist who is receiving rave reviews throughout the world; the
Wright Brothers, in a concert honoring America; and Cameron Carpenter
as CSO Artist in Residence. He will be continuing his collaboration with
the CSO to create and premiere new works for organ and orchestra
commissioned by the CSO for Cameron Carpenter. These new
arrangements will be based on popular and jazz standards. The 2012 -13
Season concludes with Beethoven's awe inspiring Ninth Symphony.
The 2012 -13 season will feature six concerts showcasing the CSO in the
Palladium, as well as a separate Family Fun! concert. As a result of our
collaborations in concert and in recording with Michael Feinstein and our
performance at the Gala Opening Concert, the CSO has reaffirmed our
position as the ensemble of choice to provide accompaniment for various
artists, including Feinstein, appearing at the Palladium.
Funding from the City of Carmel helps to underwrite the CSO's
subscription series of six "family- friendly" concerts (families with young
children are encouraged to attend and children are made to feel welcome
at all CSO concerts), and educational concerts for all 5t grade students in
Carmel -Clay schools, as well as other area school systems, private schools,
and home schooled students. The separate Family Fun! concert features
the winner of the CSO's Annual Young Artist Competition. This concert
City of Carmel

also offers "children" from two to 92 an opportunity to sit among the
orchestra musicians to watch music being made up close. And, after the
concert, the excitement spills over into the lobby where the newly inspired
can try out orchestral instruments at a musical petting zoo. City funding
also sponsors the CSO's performance at CarmelFest on the 4th of July
and at various other civic and community events.
As a "family- friendly orchestra," the Carmel Symphony Orchestra
programs concerts that entertain and educate the broadest possible
audience, including audiences who do not traditionally attend orchestra
concerts. The CSO has been successful in attracting a broader age range
than the typical 40 -60 year -old symphony orchestra patron. The eclectic
programming, use of multi -media presentations, affordable ticket price
and KidsPASS program (high school students and younger attend for $5)
attracts family audiences from broad ethnic and socioeconomic
backgrounds. At a recent CSO concert one -third of the audience was
comprised of children 12 and under. The CSO has successfully positioned
its concerts as accessible, affordable family entertainment in a way that
can compete favorably with movies and other popular forms of family
entertainment. As a result of our ticket pricing and the KidsPASS, CSO
concerts draw more children and young adults than most other major
Indiana orchestras. During the last season the CSO performed for more
than 30,000 people. Furthermore, between our two major educational
initiatives (Sounds Exciting! concert and the KidsPASS program) more
than 3,000 children under the age of fourteen heard the CSO in concert
this past season for free.
The CSO provides quality live orchestral performances that contribute to
the artistic growth of Carmel and the surrounding multi county
metropolitan area. The CSO's focus on "family- friendly" educational
programming is attracting new audiences and educating listeners who will
become the arts patrons of this century. The CSO season is designed to
enhance the educational mission of the orchestra. The education
program has three key components: the Youth PASS, the Sounds Exciting!
Elementary Concerts, and the Annual Young Artists Concerto
Competition.
The "family- friendly" atmosphere of our concerts has become the CSO's
brand. Next season we are expanding our KidsPASS program and renaming
it Youth PASS. The pass will now include students through high school
allowing them to attend any concert for just $5.
The Educational Concerts Sounds Exciting! is designed especially for
elementary school students, who are at the age when they are deciding if
they want to play a musical instrument and participate in school band and
City of Carmel
page 4
orchestra. Youth concerts draw more than 1,500 students from Hamilton
and surrounding counties to Carmel High School for the performances that
showcase a wide range of orchestral repertoire. After this concert, teachers
are surveyed. Additionally, the CSO has developed an advisory committee of
music teachers from area schools to help the orchestra plan future programs
and projects that will be a resource for teachers to use in supplementing the
state music curriculum.
The CSO nurtures the careers of young musicians through its annual
Young Artist Concerto Competition. With corporate sponsor Meridian
Music, the CSO conducts a juried competition open to any instrumental
music student who lives in a county contiguous to Hamilton or Marion
counties. Typically this competition draws applications from more than 40
talented elementary, junior high and high school students. The winner is
presented in concert as a soloist with the orchestra. The winner also
receives a $1,000 prize.
With support from the City of Carmel, in 2007 the CSO was able to
engage marketing counsel, resulting in the new brand including logo and
graphics package implemented during the 2008 -09 season. This
distinctive look and an increased emphasis on marketing and public
relations from this 2007 initiative has resulted in much wider visibility for
the CSO and the City of Carmel. The CSO is currently in the process of
restructuring its development initiative. During 2012, we anticipate hiring
a development professional to further enhance the fundraising capacity of
the orchestra. In addition to funds provided by the city, the CSO is
supported by a donor base made up of people of different socio- economic
backgrounds and age groups. We are very proud of the fact that during
these still struggling economic times, the CSO saw a 10% increase in
individual donations.
Funding from the City of Carmel will enable the Carmel Symphony
Orchestra to continue to provide "family- friendly" symphonic music of the
highest artistic level at prices that are affordable for all the residents of our
community especially families and seniors.
Sincerely,
Alan Davis
President CEO

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors of
Carmel Symphony Orchestra, Inc.:
We have audited the statement of assets and net assets cash basis of Carmel Symphony
Orchestra, Inc. (a nonprofit organization) as of June 30, 2011 and the related statement of
support, revenues, expenses, and changes in net assets cash basis for the year then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Organization's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As described in Note 1, these financial statements were prepared on the cash basis of
accounting and are not intended to be presented in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the assets and net assets of Carmel Symphony Orchestra, Inc. as of June 30, 2011 and the
support, revenues, expenses, and changes in net assets cash basis for the year then ended,
on the basis of accounting described in Note 1.
Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements
taken as a whole. The supplementary statement is presented for the purpose of additional
analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

CARMEL SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA, INC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2011
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business Carmel Symphony Orchestra, Inc. (the "Organization is a non profit
organization organized in the state of Indiana and is primarily engaged to provide orchestral
experience for all age groups, to train younger musicians, to create an interest in musical
careers by performing in schools and in public concerts and to generally entertain and improve
the cultural experiences available to all citizens in Hamilton County and nearby areas.
Basis of Accounting The financial statements of the Organization have been prepared on the
cash basis of accounting; consequently, certain revenues are recognized when received rather
than when earned and certain expenses and purchases of assets are recognized when cash is
disbursed rather than the obligation incurred. These financial statements are not intended to
present the Organization's financial position and results of operations in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis of Presentation As required by Financial Statement Presentation Disclosure Topic of
FASB ASC, the Organization is required to report information regarding its financial position and
activities according to three classes of net assets: unrestricted net assets, temporarily restricted
net assets, and permanently restricted net assets.
Net Assets
The financial statements report amounts separately by class of net assets:
Unrestricted net assets Unrestricted amounts are those, which are currently available
by the Board for use in the Organization's activities.
Temporarily restricted net assets Temporarily restricted expendable amounts are
those, which are restricted by donors for specific purposes. The Organization had no
temporarily restricted net assets at June 30, 2011.
Permanently restricted net assets Permanently restricted amounts are those, which
are subject to donor imposed stipulations that require that they be maintained
permanently by the Organization. Generally, the donors of these assets permit the use
of all or part of the income earned on the related investments for general or specific
purposes. Permanently restricted net assets consist of endowment -type funds and
investments that are required by the donors to be invested in perpetuity.
Public Support and Revenue Annual campaign contributions are generally available for
unrestricted use in the related campaign year unless specifically restricted by the donor. Grants
and other contributions of cash and other assets are reported as temporarily restricted support if
they are received with donor stipulations that limit the use of the donated assets. When a donor
restriction expires, that is, when a stipulated time restriction ends or purpose restriction is
accomplished, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and
reported in the statement of activities as net assets released from restrictions.
4
Contributions of donated services that create or enhance non financial assets or that require
specialized skills, are provided by individuals possessing those skills and would typically need to
be purchased if not provided by donation, are recorded at their fair values in the period
received.
Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Organization
considers all investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
In the normal course of business, the Organization may maintain cash held at financial
institutions in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limit of $250,000.
Investments Investments in marketable securities with readily determinable fair values and all
investments in debt securities are reported at their fair values based on quoted prices in active
markets (all Level 1 measurements) in the statements of financial position. Unrealized gains and
losses are included in the change in net assets. Investment income and gains restricted by a
donor are reported as increases in unrestricted net assets if the restrictions are met (either by
passage of time or by use) in the reporting period in which the income and gains are
recognized.
Contributed Materials and Services Contributed services are recognized as contributions in
accordance with Contributions Disclosure Topic of FASB ASC, if the services (a) create or
enhance non financial assets or (b) require specialized skills, are performed by people with
those skills, and would otherwise be purchased by the Organization. Contributions of tangible
assets are recognized at fair value when received. The amounts reflected in the accompanying
financial statements as in -kind contributions are offset by like amounts included in expenses or
additions to fixed assets.
The Organization received contributed professional services related to donated office and
rehearsal space, accounting duties, graphic design and payroll services during the year ending
June 30, 2011, with a fair market value on the dates of donation of $209,150.
Volunteers provide program and fund raising services throughout the year that are not
recognized as contributions in the financial statements since they do not meet the recognition
criteria under Contributions Disclosure Topic of FASB ASC.
Advertising Costs The Organization expenses advertising as incurred. Advertising expense
was $34,449 for the year ended June 30, 2011.
Estimates Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements.
Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the
reported amounts of revenues, expenses, gains, losses, and other changes in net assets during
the reporting period. It is least reasonably possible that the significant estimates used will
change within the next year. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Income Taxes The Organization is exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3)
of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. However, the Organization does pay income tax on
unrelated business income. Federal and state income taxes on unrelated business income, if
applicable, are provided at the statutory tax rates.
5
The Organization has adopted the provisions of Uncertain Tax Positions Disclosure Topics of
FASB ASC, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the
financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be
taken in a tax return. Management continually evaluates expiring statutes of limitations, audits,
proposed settlements, changes in tax law and new authoritative rulings when applicable. The
Organization is unaware of any uncertainties or provisions needed for income taxes.
NOTE 2 BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN ASSETS HELD BY OTHERS
The Organization presents its beneficial interest in a portion of endowment -type funds in
accordance with Fair Value Measurement Disclosure Topic of FASB ASC. The donors have
instructed a local financial institution to hold and invest these funds, in order to preserve
principal and make periodic distributions of the investment income to the charitable
organization. Since the Organization has a beneficial right to receive a portion of the income
from the permanent fund established under the donors' intent, the funds are included in the
statement of financial position at their market value and as permanently restricted net assets.
Changes in the market value of the funds are presented in the statement of activities as net
changes in beneficial interest in assets held by others. Investment income received from these
funds is available for use in the normal operations of the Organization.
NOTE 3 OPERATING LEASE
The Organization leases a copier for $447 per month. The lease terms are approximately 5
years and expire by August 31, 2014. Lease expense was $7,124 for the year ended June 30,
2011.
Future minimum lease payments are as follows:
Year Amount
2012 5,367
2013 5,367
2014 and thereafter 895
11,629
NOTE 4 SUBSEQUENT EVENT
In preparing these financial statements, the Organization has evaluated subsequent events and
transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through February 1, 2012, the date the
financial statements were available to be issued.

THE E- VERIFY PROGRAM FOR EMPLOYMENT VERIFICATION
MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
ARTICLE I
PURPOSE AND AUTHORITY
This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) sets forth the points of agreement between the
Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Carmel Symphony Orchestra (Employer)
regarding the Employer's participation in the Employment Eligibility Verification Program (E-
Verify). This MOU explains certain features of the E- Verify program and enumerates specific
responsibilities of DHS, the Social Security Administration (SSA), and the Employer. E- Verify is
a program that electronically confirms an employee's eligibility to work in the United States after
completion of the Employment Eligibility Verification Form (Form 1 -9). For covered government
contractors, E- Verify is used to verify the employment eligibility of all newly hired employees and
all existing employees assigned to Federal contracts or to verify the entire workforce if the
contractor so chooses.
Authority for the E- Verify program is found in Title IV, Subtitle A, of the Illegal Immigration
Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (IIRIRA), Pub. L. 104 -208, 110 Stat. 3009, as
amended (8 U.S.C. 1324a note). Authority for use of the E- Verify program by Federal
contractors and subcontractors covered by the terms of Subpart 22.18, "Employment Eligibility
Verification of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) (hereinafter referred to in this MOU as
a "Federal contractor with the FAR E- Verify clause to verify the employment eligibility of
certain employees working on Federal contracts is also found in Subpart 22.18 and in Executive
Order 12989, as amended.
ARTICLE II
FUNCTIONS TO BE PERFORMED
A. RESPONSIBILITIES OF SSA
1. SSA agrees to provide the Employer with available information that allows the Employer to
confirm the accuracy of Social Security Numbers provided by all employees verified under this
MOU and the employment authorization of U.S. citizens.
2. SSA agrees to provide to the Employer appropriate assistance with operational problems that
may arise during the Employer's participation in the E- Verify program. SSA agrees to provide
the Employer with names, titles, addresses, and telephone numbers of SSA representatives to
be contacted during the E- Verify process.
3. SSA agrees to safeguard the information provided by the Employer through the E- Verify
program procedures, and to limit access to such information, as is appropriate by law, to
individuals responsible for the verification of Social Security Numbers and for evaluation of the
E- Verify program or such other persons or entities who may be authorized by SSA as governed

by the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a), the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1306(a)), and SSA
regulations (20 CFR Part 401).
4. SSA agrees to provide a means of automated verification that is designed (in conjunction with
DHS's automated system if necessary) to provide confirmation or tentative nonconfirmation of
U.S. citizens' employment eligibility within 3 Federal Government work days of the initial inquiry.
5. SSA agrees to provide a means of secondary verification (including updating SSA records as
may be necessary) for employees who contest SSA tentative nonconfirmations that is designed
to provide final confirmation or nonconfirmation of U.S. citizens' employment eligibility and
accuracy of SSA records for both citizens and non citizens within 10 Federal Government work
days of the date of referral to SSA, unless SSA determines that more than 10 days may be
necessary. In such cases, SSA will provide additional verification instructions.
B. RESPONSIBILITIES OF DHS
1. After SSA verifies the accuracy of SSA records for employees through E- Verify, DHS agrees
to provide the Employer access to selected data from DHS's database to enable the Employer
to conduct, to the extent authorized by this MOU:
Automated verification checks on employees by electronic means, and
Photo verification checks (when available) on employees.
2. DHS agrees to provide to the Employer appropriate assistance with operational problems that
may arise during the Employer's participation in the E- Verify program. DHS agrees to provide
the Employer names, titles, addresses, and telephone numbers of DHS representatives to be
contacted during the E- Verify process.
3. DHS agrees to make available to the Employer at the E- Verify Web site and on the E- Verify
Web browser, instructional materials on E- Verify policies, procedures and requirements for both
SSA and DHS, including restrictions on the use of E- Verify. DHS agrees to provide training
materials on E- Verify.
4. DHS agrees to provide to the Employer a notice, which indicates the Employer's participation
in the E- Verify program. DHS also agrees to provide to the Employer anti discrimination notices
issued by the Office of Special Counsel for Immigration Related Unfair Employment Practices
(OSC), Civil Rights Division, U.S. Department of Justice.
5. DHS agrees to issue the Employer a user identification number and password that permits
the Employer to verify information provided by employees with DHS's database.
6. DHS agrees to safeguard the information provided to DHS by the Employer, and to limit
access to such information to individuals responsible for the verification of employees'
employment eligibility and for evaluation of the E- Verify program, or to such other persons or
entities as may be authorized by applicable law. Information will be used only to verify the
accuracy of Social Security Numbers and employment eligibility, to enforce the Immigration and
Page 2 of 13 1 E- Verify MOU for Employer I Revision Date 09/01/09 www.dhs.gov /E- Verify
Company ID Number: 449401
Nationality Act (INA) and Federal criminal laws, and to administer Federal contracting
requirements.
7. DHS agrees to provide a means of automated verification that is designed (in conjunction
with SSA verification procedures) to provide confirmation or tentative nonconfirmation of
employees' employment eligibility within 3 Federal Government work days of the initial inquiry.
8. DHS agrees to provide a means of secondary verification (including updating DHS records as
may be necessary) for employees who contest DHS tentative nonconfirmations and photo non
match tentative nonconfirmations that is designed to provide final confirmation or
nonconfirmation of the employees' employment eligibility within 10 Federal Government work
days of the date of referral to DHS, unless DHS determines that more than 10 days may be
necessary. In such cases, DHS will provide additional verification instructions.
C. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE EMPLOYER
1. The Employer agrees to display the notices supplied by DHS in a prominent place that is
clearly visible to prospective employees and all employees who are to be verified through the
system.
2. The Employer agrees to provide to the SSA and DHS the names, titles, addresses, and
telephone numbers of the Employer representatives to be contacted regarding E- Verify.
3. The Employer agrees to become familiar with and comply with the most recent version of the
E- Verify User Manual.
4. The Employer agrees that any Employer Representative who will perform employment
verification queries will complete the E- Verify Tutorial before that individual initiates any queries.
A. The Employer agrees that all Employer representatives will take the refresher tutorials
initiated by the E- Verify program as a condition of continued use of E- Verify.
B. Failure to complete a refresher tutorial will prevent the Employer from continued use
of the program.
5. The Employer agrees to comply with current Form 1 -9 procedures, with two exceptions:
If an employee presents a "List B" identity document, the Employer agrees to only
accept "List B" documents that
contain a photo. (List B documents identified in 8 C.F.R. 274a.2(b)(1)(B)) can be
presented during the Form 1 -9
process to establish identity.) If an employee objects to the photo requirement for
religious reasons, the Employer
should contact E- Verify at 888 464 -4218.
If an employee presents a DHS Form 1 -551 (Permanent Resident Card) or Form I -766
(Employment Authorization Document) to complete the Form 1 -9, the Employer agrees to
make a photocopy of the document and to retain the photocopy with the employee's
Form 1 -9. The photocopy must be of sufficient quality to allow for verification of the photo
Page 3 of 13 1 E- Verify MOU for Employer I Revision Date 09/01/09 www.dhs.gov /E- Verify
i
i,
Company ID Number: 449401
and written information. The employer will use the photocopy to verify the photo and to
assist DHS with its review of photo non matches that are contested by employees. Note
that employees retain the right to present any List A, or List B and List C, documentation
to complete the Form 1 -9. DHS may in the future designate other documents that
activate the photo screening tool.
6. The Employer understands that participation in E- Verify does not exempt the Employer from
the responsibility to complete, retain, and make available for inspection Forms 1 -9 that relate to
its employees, or from other requirements of applicable regulations or laws, including the
obligation to comply with the antidiscrimination requirements of section 274B of the INA with
respect to Form 1 -9 procedures, except for the following modified requirements applicable by
reason of the Employer's participation in E- Verify: (1) identity documents must have photos, as
described in paragraph 5 above; (2) a rebuttable presumption is established that the Employer
has not violated section 274A(a)(1)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) with respect
to the hiring of any individual if it obtains confirmation of the identity and employment eligibility of
the individual in good faith compliance with the terms and conditions of E- Verify; (3) the
Employer must notify DHS if it continues to employ any employee after receiving a final
nonconfirmation, and is subject to a civil money penalty between $550 and $1,100 for each
failure to notify DHS of continued employment following a final nonconfirmation; (4) the
Employer is subject to a rebuttable presumption that it has knowingly employed an unauthorized
alien in violation of section 274A(a)(1)(A) if the Employer continues to employ an employee after
receiving a final nonconfirmation; and (5) no person or entity participating in E- Verify is civilly or
criminally liable under any law for any action taken in good faith based on information provided
through the confirmation system. DHS reserves the right to conduct Form 1 -9 and E- Verify
system compliance inspections during the course of E- Verify, as well as to conduct any other
enforcement activity authorized by law.
7. The Employer agrees to initiate E- Verify verification procedures for new employees within 3
Employer business days after each employee has been hired (but after the Form 1 -9 has been
completed), and to complete as many (but only as many) steps of the E- Verify process as are
necessary according to the E- Verify User Manual, or in the case of Federal contractors with the
FAR E- Verify clause, the E- Verify User Manual for Federal Contractors. The Employer is
prohibited from initiating verification procedures before the employee has been hired and the
Form 1 -9 completed. If the automated system to be queried is temporarily unavailable, the 3 -day
time period is extended until it is again operational in order to accommodate the Employer's
attempting, in good faith, to make inquiries during the period of unavailability. Employers may
initiate verification by notating the Form 1 -9 in circumstances where the employee has applied
for a Social Security Number (SSN) from the SSA and is waiting to receive the SSN, provided
that the Employer performs an E- Verify employment verification query using the employee's
SSN as soon as the SSN becomes available.
8. The Employer agrees not to use E- Verify procedures for pre employment screening of job
applicants, in support of any unlawful employment practice, or for any other use not authorized
by this MOU. Employers must use E- Verify for all new employees, unless an Employer is a
Federal contractor that qualifies for the exceptions described in Article II.D.1.c. Except as
provided in Article II.D, the Employer will not verify selectively and will not verify employees
hired before the effective date of this MOU. The Employer understands that if the Employer
Page 4 of 13 1 E- Verify MOU for Employer I Revision Date 09/01/09 www.dhs.gov /E- Verify
b Yifiiu a
Company ID Number: 449401
uses the E- Verify system for any purpose other than as authorized by this MOU, the Employer
may be subject to appropriate legal action and termination of its access to SSA and DHS
information pursuant to this MOU.
9. The Employer agrees to follow appropriate procedures (see Article III. below) regarding
tentative nonconfirmations, including notifying employees in private of the finding and providing
them written notice of the findings, providing written referral instructions to employees, allowing
employees to contest the finding, and not taking adverse action against employees if they
choose to contest the finding. Further, when employees contest a tentative nonconfirmation
based upon a photo non match, the Employer is required to take affirmative steps (see Article
III.B. below) to contact DHS with information necessary to resolve the challenge.
10. The Employer agrees not to take any adverse action against an employee based upon the
employee's perceived employment eligibility status while SSA or DHS is processing the
verification request unless the Employer obtains knowledge (as defined in 8 C.F.R. 274a.1(1))
that the employee is not work authorized. The Employer understands that an initial inability of
the SSA or DHS automated verification system to verify work authorization, a tentative
nonconfirmation, a case in continuance (indicating the need for additional time for the
government to resolve a case), or the finding of a photo non match, does not establish, and
should not be interpreted as evidence, that the employee is not work authorized. In any of the
cases listed above, the employee must be provided a full and fair opportunity to contest the
finding, and if he or she does so, the employee may not be terminated or suffer any adverse
employment consequences based upon the employee's perceived employment eligibility status
(including denying, reducing, or extending work hours, delaying or preventing training, requiring
an employee to work in poorer conditions, refusing to assign the employee to a Federal contract
or other assignment, or otherwise subjecting an employee to any assumption that he or she is
unauthorized to work) until and unless secondary verification by SSA or DHS has been
completed and a final nonconfirmation has been issued. If the employee does not choose to
contest a tentative nonconfirmation or a photo non -match or if a secondary verification is
completed and a final nonconfirmation is issued, then the Employer can find the employee is not
work authorized and terminate the employee's employment. Employers or employees with
questions about a final nonconfirmation may call E- Verify at 1- 888 464 -4218 or OSC at 1 -800-
255 -8155 or 1- 800 237 -2515 (TDD).
11. The Employer agrees to comply with Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and section
274B of the INA, as applicable, by not discriminating unlawfully against any individual in hiring,
firing, or recruitment or referral practices because of his or her national origin or, in the case of a
protected individual as defined in section 27413(a)(3) of the INA, because of his or her
citizenship status. The Employer understands that such illegal practices can include selective
verification or use of E- Verify except as provided in part D below, or discharging or refusing to
hire employees because they appear or sound "foreign" or have received tentative
nonconfirmations. The Employer further understands that any violation of the unfair immigration
related employment practices provisions in section 274B of the INA could subject the Employer
to civil penalties, back pay awards, and other sanctions, and violations of Title VII could subject
the Employer to back pay awards, compensatory and punitive damages. Violations of either
section 274B of the INA or Title VII may also lead to the termination of its participation in E-

Verify. If the Employer has any questions relating to the anti discrimination provision, it should
contact OSC at 1- 800 255 -8155 or 1- 800 237 -2515 (TDD).
12. The Employer agrees to record the case verification number on the employee's Form 1 -9 or
to print the screen containing the case verification number and attach it to the employee's Form
1 -9.
13. The Employer agrees that it will use the information it receives from SSA or DHS pursuant
to E- Verify and this MOU only to confirm the employment eligibility of employees as authorized
by this MOU. The Employer agrees that it will safeguard this information, and means of access
to it (such as PINS and passwords) to ensure that it is not used for any other purpose and as
necessary to protect its confidentiality, including ensuring that it is not disseminated to any
person other than employees of the Employer who are authorized to perform the Employer's
responsibilities under this MOU, except for such dissemination as may be authorized in advance
by SSA or DHS for legitimate purposes.
14. The Employer acknowledges that the information which it receives from SSA is governed by
the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a(i)(1) and (3)) and the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1306(a)),
and that any person who obtains this information under false pretenses or uses it for any
purpose other than as provided for in this MOU may be subject to criminal penalties.
15. The Employer agrees to cooperate with DHS and SSA in their compliance monitoring and
evaluation of E- Verify, including by permitting DHS and SSA, upon reasonable notice, to review
Forms 1 -9 and other employment records and to interview it and its employees regarding the
Employer's use of E- Verify, and to respond in a timely and accurate manner to DHS requests
for information relating to their participation in E- Verify.
D. RESPONSIBILITIES OF FEDERAL CONTRACTORS WITH THE FAR E- VERIFY CLAUSE
1. The Employer understands that if it is a subject to the employment verification terms
in Subpart 22.18 of the FAR, it must verify the employment eligibility of any existing employee
assigned to the contract and all new hires, as discussed in the Supplemental Guide for Federal
Contractors. Once an employee has been verified through E- Verify by the Employer, the
Employer may not reverify the employee through E- Verify.
a. Federal contractors with the FAR E- Verify clause agree to become familiar with and
comply with the most recent versions of the E- Verify User Manual for Federal Contractors and
the E- Verify Supplemental Guide for Federal Contractors.
b. Federal contractors with the FAR E- Verify clause agree to complete a tutorial for
Federal contractors with the FAR E- Verify clause.
c. Federal contractors with the FAR E- Verify clause not enrolled at the time of contract
award: An Employer that is not enrolled in E- Verify at the time of a contract award must enroll
as a Federal contractor with the FAR E- Verify clause in E- Verify within 30 calendar days of
contract award and, within 90 days of enrollment, begin to use E- Verify to initiate verification of
employment eligibility of new hires of the Employer who are working in the United States,
Page 6 of 13 1 E- Verify MOU for Employer I Revision Date 09/01/09 www.dhs.gov /E- Verify
Company ID Number: 449401
whether or not assigned to the contract. Once the Employer begins verifying new hires, such
verification of new hires must be initiated within 3 business days after the date of hire. Once
enrolled in E- Verify as a Federal contractor with the FAR E- Verify clause, the Employer must
initiate verification of employees assigned to the contract within 90 calendar days from the time
of enrollment in the system and after the date and selecting which employees will be verified in
E- Verify or within 30 days of an employee's assignment to the contract, whichever date is later.
d. Employers that are already enrolled in E- Verify at the time of a contract award but are
not enrolled in the system as a Federal contractor with the FAR E- Verify clause: Employers
enrolled in E- Verify for 90 days or more at the time of a contract award must use E- Verify to
initiate verification of employment eligibility for new hires of the Employer who are working in the
United States, whether or not assigned to the contract, within 3 business days after the date of
hire. Employers enrolled in E- Verify as other than a Federal contractor with the FAR E- Verify
clause, must update E- Verify to indicate that they are a Federal contractor with the FAR E-
Verify clause within 30 days after assignment to the contract. If the Employer is enrolled in E-
Verify for 90 calendar days or less at the time of contract award, the Employer must, within 90
days of enrollment, begin to use E- Verify to initiate verification of new hires of the contractor
who are working in the United States, whether or not assigned to the contract. Such verification
of new hires must be initiated within 3 business days after the date of hire. An Employer
enrolled as a Federal contractor with the FAR E- Verify clause in E- Verify must initiate
verification of each employee assigned to the contract within 90 calendar days after date of
contract award or within 30 days after assignment to the contract, whichever is later.
e. Institutions of higher education, State, local and tribal governments and sureties:
Federal contractors with the FAR E- Verify clause that are institutions of higher education (as
defined at 20 U.S.C. 1001(a)), State or local governments, governments of Federally recognized
Indian tribes, or sureties performing under a takeover agreement entered into with a Federal
agency pursuant to a performance bond may choose to only verify new and existing employees
assigned to the Federal contract. Such Federal contractors with the FAR E- Verify clause may,
however, elect to verify all new hires, and /or all existing employees hired after November 6,
1986. The provisions of Article II.D, paragraphs 1.a and 1.b of this MOU providing timeframes
for initiating employment verification of employees assigned to a contract apply to such
institutions of higher education, State, local and tribal governments, and sureties.
f. Verification of all employees: Upon enrollment, Employers who are Federal contractors
with the FAR E- Verify clause may elect to verify employment eligibility of all existing employees
working in the United States who were hired after November 6, 1986, instead of verifying only
new employees and those existing employees assigned to a covered Federal contract. After
enrollment, Employers must elect to do so only in the manner designated by DHS and initiate E-
Verify verification of all existing employees within 180 days after the election.
g. Form 1 -9 procedures for existing employees of Federal contractors with the FAR E-
Verify clause: Federal contractors with the FAR E- Verify clause may choose to complete new
Forms 1 -9 for all existing employees other than those that are completely exempt from this
process. Federal contractors with the FAR E- Verify clause may also update previously
completed Forms 1 -9 to initiate E- Verify verification of existing employees who are not
completely exempt as long as that Form 1 -9 is complete (including the SSN), complies with
Page 7 of 13 1 E- Verify MOU for Employer I Revision Date 09/01/09 www.dhs.gov /E- Verify
L'y rille,
f M
Ve r a i m
Company ID Number: 449401
Article II.C.5, the employee's work authorization has not expired, and the Employer has
reviewed the information reflected in the Form 1 -9 either in person or in communications with the
employee to ensure that the employee's stated basis in section 1 of the Form 1 -9 for work
authorization has not changed (including, but not limited to, a lawful permanent resident alien
having become a naturalized U.S. citizen). If the Employer is unable to determine that the Form
1 -9 complies with Article II.C.5, if the employee's basis for work authorization as attested in
section 1 has expired or changed, or if the Form 1 -9 contains no SSN or is otherwise incomplete,
the Employer shall complete a new 1 -9 consistent with Article II.C.5, or update the previous 1 -9
to provide the necessary information. If section 1 of the Form 1 -9 is otherwise valid and up -to-
date and the form otherwise complies with Article II.C.5, but reflects documentation (such as a
U.S. passport or Form 1 -551) that expired subsequent to completion of the Form 1 -9, the
Employer shall not require the production of additional documentation, or use the photo
screening tool described in Article II.C.5, subject to any additional or superseding instructions
that may be provided on this subject in the Supplemental Guide for Federal Contractors.
Nothing in this section shall be construed to require a second verification using E- Verify of any
assigned employee who has previously been verified as a newly hired employee under this
MOU, or to authorize verification of any existing employee by any Employer that is not a Federal
contractor with the FAR E- Verify clause.
2. The Employer understands that if it is a Federal contractor with the FAR E- Verify clause, its
compliance with this MOU is a performance requirement under the terms of the Federal
contract or subcontract, and the Employer consents to the release of information relating to
compliance with its verification responsibilities under this MOU to contracting officers or other
officials authorized to review the Employer's compliance with Federal contracting requirements.
ARTICLE III
REFERRAL OF INDIVIDUALS TO SSA AND DHS
A. REFERRAL TO SSA
1. If the Employer receives a tentative nonconfirmation issued by SSA, the Employer must print
the notice as directed by the E- Verify system and provide it to the employee so that the
employee may determine whether he or she will contest the tentative nonconfirmation. The
Employer must review the tentative nonconfirmation with the employee in private.
2. The Employer will refer employees to SSA field offices only as directed by the automated
system based on a tentative nonconfirmation, and only after the Employer records the case
verification number, reviews the input to detect any transaction errors, and determines that the
employee contests the tentative nonconfirmation. The Employer will transmit the Social Security
Number to SSA for verification again if this review indicates a need to do so. The Employer will
determine whether the employee contests the tentative nonconfirmation as soon as possible
after the Employer receives it.
3. If the employee contests an SSA tentative nonconfirmation, the Employer will provide the
employee with a system generated referral letter and instruct the employee to visit an SSA
office within 8 Federal Government work days. SSA will electronically transmit the result of the
referral to the Employer within 10 Federal Government work days of the referral unless it

determines that more than 10 days is necessary. The Employer agrees to check the E- Verify
system regularly for case updates.
4. The Employer agrees not to ask the employee to obtain a printout from the Social Security
Number database (the Numident) or other written verification of the Social Security Number
from the SSA.
B. REFERRAL TO DHS
1. If the Employer receives a tentative nonconfirmation issued by DHS, the Employer must print
the tentative nonconfirmation notice as directed by the E- Verify system and provide it to the
employee so that the employee may determine whether he or she will contest the tentative
nonconfirmation. The Employer must review the tentative nonconfirmation with the employee in
private.
2. If the Employer finds a photo non -match for an employee who provides a document for which
the automated system has transmitted a photo, the employer must print the photo non -match
tentative nonconfirmation notice as directed by the automated system and provide it to the
employee so that the employee may determine whether he or she will contest the finding. The
Employer must review the tentative nonconfirmation with the employee in private.
3. The Employer agrees to refer individuals to DHS only when the employee chooses to contest
a tentative nonconfirmation received from DHS automated verification process or when the
Employer issues a tentative nonconfirmation based upon a photo non match. The Employer will
determine whether the employee contests the tentative nonconfirmation as soon as possible
after the Employer receives it.
4. If the employee contests a tentative nonconfirmation issued by DHS, the Employer will
provide the employee with a referral letter and instruct the employee to contact DHS through its
toll -free hotline (as found on the referral letter) within 8 Federal Government work days.
5. If the employee contests a tentative nonconfirmation based upon a photo non match, the
Employer will provide the employee with a referral letter to DHS. DHS will electronically transmit
the result of the referral to the Employer within 10 Federal Government work days of the referral
unless it determines that more than 10 days is necessary. The Employer agrees to check the E-
Verify system regularly for case updates.
6. The Employer agrees that if an employee contests a tentative nonconfirmation based upon a
photo non match, the Employer will send a copy of the employee's Form 1 -551 or Form 1 -766 to
DHS for review by:
Scanning and uploading the document, or
Sending a photocopy of the document by an express mail account (paid for at
employer expense).
7. If the Employer determines that there is a photo non -match when comparing the photocopied
List B document described in Article II.C.5 with the image generated in E- Verify, the Employer
must forward the employee's documentation to DHS using one of the means described in the
preceding paragraph, and allow DHS to resolve the case.

ARTICLE IV
SERVICE PROVISIONS
SSA and DHS will not charge the Employer for verification services performed under this MOU.
The Employer is responsible for providing equipment needed to make inquiries. To access E-
Verify, an Employer will need a personal computer with Internet access.
ARTICLE V
PARTIES
A. This MOU is effective upon the signature of all parties, and shall continue in effect for as long
as the SSA and DHS conduct the E- Verify program unless modified in writing by the mutual
consent of all parties, or terminated by any party upon 30 days prior written notice to the others.
Any and all system enhancements to the E- Verify program by DHS or SSA, including but not
limited to the E- Verify checking against additional data sources and instituting new verification
procedures, will be covered under this MOU and will not cause the need for a supplemental
MOU that outlines these changes. DHS agrees to train employers on all changes made to E-
Verify through the use of mandatory refresher tutorials and updates to the E- Verify User
Manual, the E- Verify User Manual for Federal Contractors or the E- Verify Supplemental Guide
for Federal Contractors. Even without changes to E- Verify, DHS reserves the right to require
employers to take mandatory refresher tutorials. An Employer that is a Federal contractor with
the FAR E- Verify clause may terminate this MOU when the Federal contract that requires its
participation in E- Verify is terminated or completed. In such a circumstance, the Federal
contractor with the FAR E- Verify clause must provide written notice to DHS. If an Employer that
is a Federal contractor with the FAR E- Verify clause fails to provide such notice, that Employer
will remain a participant in the E- Verify program, will remain bound by the terms of this MOU
that apply to participants that are not Federal contractors with the FAR E- Verify clause, and will
be required to use the E- Verify procedures to verify the employment eligibility of all newly hired
employees.
B. Notwithstanding Article V, part A of this MOU, DHS may terminate this MOU if deemed
necessary because of the requirements of law or policy, or upon a determination by SSA or
DHS that there has been a breach of system integrity or security by the Employer, or a failure
on the part of the Employer to comply with established procedures or legal requirements. The
Employer understands that if it is a Federal contractor with the FAR E- Verify clause, termination
of this MOU by any party for any reason may negatively affect its performance of its contractual
responsibilities.
C. Some or all SSA and DHS responsibilities under this MOU may be performed by
contractor(s), and SSA and DHS may adjust verification responsibilities between each other as
they may determine necessary. By separate agreement with DHS, SSA has agreed to perform
its responsibilities as described in this MOU.
