• An individual does not have to be a "member".
• The staff is responsible for completing the process and not the job applicant. In order to expedite the process you will make contact with the employer and complete the form I will be sending you.
• I will forward the employer a confirmation letter and copy you. The federal identification number is requested for verification purposes.
• You can access most federal identification numbers through the LWC mainframe.
• We have to know that the employer is a legitimate employer before completing the request for bonding.

• In order for an individual to secure a bond, he must be employed.
• The bond can start effective the day of employment but the individual must be employed.
• Bonds can also be used if necessary to promote or retain an employee. If the level of responsibility maybe a security to risk to an employer or if with bonding an employee maybe terminated, we can bond for such issues.

• The bondee does not have any paper work to take to the employer.
• The form is completed in your office.
• The employer or the job applicant does not have any form(s) to sign.
• Your signature ensures that (1) the employer is legitimate and (2) the worker covered by the bond has presented you with identification documentation.

• You can fax the bonding certification to my attention once it has been completed. It is not necessary to mail it. IT has sent the updated form so it's attached. If I can be of further assistance please call me.

Is it the employers choice as to what amount the Federal Bonding will be?

It actually depends on the wage rate for the most part.
