Doing an I-9 Self-Audit for Compliance: Identifying and Correcting Problems to Avoid Penalties

Recorded Session
60 Minutes

Form I-9 involves many gray areas and confusing instructions, and an apparently simple form can create six-figure liability if done wrong. With inspections by USCIS and USDOL more frequent and fines rising, an I-9 self-audit is one of the best ways to protect your organization.

This 60-minute webinar guides you through the internal audit process and what you need to know to stay compliant: changes to the form, storage rules, over- and under-documentation, reverification, retention, remote verification, expired documents, timing and "no-match" letters.

You'll also cover employer and employee responsibilities, common errors and how to correct errors and omissions, with time for your specific questions.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

For HR teams, Form I-9 and the online verification system are full of costly traps, and each mistake can mean per-employee fines. A regular self-audit helps you find and fix problems before a government inspection does.

This session suits HR professionals, managers and business owners responsible for hiring and employment verification.
