Now, and habits. vérifie covers both "I verify, to check" and "I am verify, to checking" — French has no separate continuous form.
A completed past action. avoir conjugates and vérifié does not — ai vérifié.
An ongoing or habitual past. Built on the nous-present stem, so vérifions gives you vérifiais.
About to happen. aller conjugates; vérifier never moves — the easier future to produce under pressure.
Will happen. Built on vérifier-, which is just the infinitive, so only the endings are new.

What this table tells you about vérifier
The past participle is vérifié, and it takes avoir in the passé composé — so it never changes shape, whoever the subject is. No agreement to remember here.
The futur simple is built on vérifier-, which is just the infinitive — the endings are the whole story, nothing new to learn for this tense.
In both the present and the imparfait, je, tu, il/elle and ils/elles are one sound: vérifie, vérifies, vérifient — indistinguishable spoken. Only nous and vous carry an audible ending.
The imparfait is built on the nous-present stem, so once you know vérifions you already know vérifiais, vérifiait and vérifiaient. Futur proche keeps vérifier untouched.
