What this form is
Under O.C.G.A. §36-60-6(d), Atlanta private employers applying for a business license or occupational tax certificate must disclose their employee count and, if over ten, attest under oath that they are registered with and use the federal E-Verify program, including their E-Verify user ID and authorization date.
Who needs it
Business owners or authorized officers applying for a City of Atlanta business license or occupational tax certificate whose company employs more than ten people.
Why it needs a notary
The affidavit contains a perjury declaration and a 'SUBSCRIBED AND SWORN BEFORE ME' notary block, so the signature must be sworn before a notary public.
