Form I-9 and E-Verify, getting and staying compliant
Description: Employers are required to complete an I-9 form for every person they hire and to update these forms when necessary. Periodically, the DHS, the Department of Labor and the Justice Department send Notices of Inspection to employers to audit their I-9 forms. If the I-9 forms are not completed correctly, an employer may be fined even if all their employees are legally authorized to work in the U.S. In fact, Congress gave the DHS authority to increase penalty thresholds by more than 200% to account for inflation. But the horizon for I-9 compliance is ever dynamic, recently the Fifth Circuit issued a decision regarding I-9 compliance that promises to have reaching impact to the employer.
