Overview
DHS and USCIS revised Form I-9 and its completion rules, including an option for remote document verification when extra conditions are met. This 90-minute Form I-9 and E-Verify compliance webinar explains the revised form and how to complete it correctly.
Mistakes are expensive. ICE has increased worksite inspections and penalties for incorrect forms, with the fine depending on the share of forms that contain errors. Many organizations never learn how to complete the form or train the people responsible, even though the form changes every few years.
You'll review employer responsibilities, recent penalties, ICE's COVID-19 extensions, follow-up for temporary work authorizations, I-9 retention practices and how to self-audit and correct mistakes.
Why attend: A quick compliance check can save your company from costly penalties. This session helps you confirm you are using the correct form, completing it fully, copying the right documents (or deciding whether to copy at all), keeping proper records, updating temporary work visas, communicating with new hires and auditing and correcting your I-9s. It suits HR professionals, payroll administrators, staff who handle onboarding and personnel files, and employers in hospitality, construction, roofing, food preparation, manufacturing, agriculture and landscaping.
