Huddersfield giants wing McGillvary was put on report by referee Ben Thaler after an incident early in the second half of England's 29-10 victory over Lebanon at Sydney Football Stadium on Saturday.
Lebanon's Australian-born captain Farah claimed the 29-year-old bit him on the arm in a tackle.
"It's pretty clear for everyone to see on the replay," the South Sydney Rabbitohs star said in a post-match interview.
England have now confirmed McGillvary will face a hearing on Wednesday.
