Overview of the webinar

Completing a USCIS Form I-9 in a compliant manner involves navigating through numerous gray 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.


This webinar will guide you through the I-9 internal audit process, and what you need to know to stay in I-9 compliance: changes to the form … storage rules … over- (and under-) documentation … reverification … document retention … remote verification … expired documents … timing … "no-match" letters … and more! 

Why should you attend?

Are you confident your organization is in full compliance with Federal immigration laws, or are you at risk for being assessed costly fines, or worse, for potential violations?


For HR departments, the seemingly simple onboarding form and online immigration verification system are a minefield of potentially costly errors. I-9 mistakes can cost your company anywhere from $2,000 to $20,000 in per-employee fines …
