I-9 Compliance

Employers are required to verify the employment eligibility of all employees hired after November 6, 1986. This is accomplished through the execution of the Form I-9 and the maintenance of that form. Both Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Department of Labor are empowered to conduct audits of employers to determine if the company is in compliance. The key to ensuring compliance with this section of the immigration laws is to have strong policies and procedures in place to deal with the I-9 preparation and maintenance requirements.

Our services include reviewing forms to ensure full compliance in the event of a Department of Labor or Immigration and Customs Enforcement audit (mock audits), recommending protocol to fulfill the company’s I-9 requirements, and advising on whether or not to adopt I-9s in the event of a corporate restructuring.
