Completing a USCIS Form I-9 in a compliant manner involves navigating through numerous grey areas of the law and interpreting some often-conflicting and confusing instructions.  What appears to be a simple form carries the potential for six-figure liability if completed incorrectly.

As USCIS and USDOL inspections of Forms I-9 have become more frequent, fines have become more prevalent and costly.  It’s imperative that employers focus on compliance with Form I-9 regulations to avoid costly fines and penalties. 

The I-9 and E-Verify processes changed dramatically in the past few months … "virtual verification" is now allowed … the list of acceptable I-9 documents changed … you have new flexibility in who can serve as an "authorized representative" … you must be using a brand-new I-9 form … and you need to know what common errors are out there, so you don’t make the same mistakes.

During this webinar, you will receive step-by-step guidance on conducting an internal audit of your I-9 forms to ensure compliance with USCIS regulations. We will cover important topics such as changes to the form, proper storage rules, avoiding over- or under-documentation, correct procedures for re-verification, document retention policies, remote verification processes, how to handle expired documents, timing requirements, how to handle "no-match" letters, and much more.
