SUMMARY:On Topic: I-9 Workshop
DESCRIPTION:I-9 Workshop\n\nHow to address I-9 basics\, social security no-match letters\, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) I-9 audits\n\n\n\nFeaturing speakers from Cascadia Cross Border Law\n\n\n\nForm I-9 is used for verifying the identity and employment authorization of individuals hired for employment in the United States. All U.S. employers must complete a Form I-9 for every U.S. hire this includes citizens and noncitizens. The government places the burden on employers to ensure that all Form I-9s are completed fully and accurately.\n\n \n\nICE conducts audits of employer I-9 forms. Failure to comply with I-9 rules can subject an employer to potential criminal charges. Even so-called "minor paperwork mistakes\," or "technical mistakes\," can result in costly penalties for employers\n\n \n\nUnfortunately\, many employer I-9 processes are imperfect. In such cases\, the most important step an employer can take to protect themselves from potential fines and criminal charges is identify and correct I-9 errors\, omissions\, and discrepancies now before ICE comes knocking on the door. ICE views "good faith" I-9 violations with cynicism if corrections are made after ICE sends a notice of audit. \n\n\n\nThis is an On Topic that you do not want to miss!
