BEING RESCHEDULED TO SPRING 2019: Form I-9 Training and Compliance
Immigration enforcement is on the rise as is evident by the 5,200 audits conducted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in the first half of 2018 in what it is calling a “bold new audit initiative” to crack down on employers who violate immigration laws. Ensuring I-9 compliance is difficult, and often overlooked. We will discuss the latest requirements and best practices in this scrutinized area:
- I-9 basics: Essential steps to correctly fill out the latest version of the I-9
- Common I-9 completion mistakes to avoid
- Establishing an I-9 policy
- What information you should - and shouldn't - demand of applicants and employees
- How, where and for how long must you store I-9s?
- Reverification
- Internal audits: What can be corrected and who should be auditing?
- Best practices: What else should you be doing?
- Electronic I-9 systems: What to consider when going paperless
- E-Verify
