No--no employer is ever required to fill out an employment verification form for any reason, unless:

1) There was some written agreement (e.g. part of a severance or separation agreement) to so; or 

2) There is some official court "process," like a subpoena or (if the employer is a party to litigation) written interrogatories , requiring this.

Otherwise, the employer can say "no."
