This is considered pre-screening.

The Immigration and Nationality Act’s anti-discrimination provision, found at 8 U.S.C. § 1324b,
requires employers to apply Form I-9 and E-Verify rules consistently, regardless of an employee’s
citizenship, immigration status or national origin. The Immigrant and Employee Rights Section
(IER) of the U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division enforces this law.

Employers that discriminate in their use of E-Verify may be in violation of this law.
