Now the new I-9 Form has been in place in 2024, it is time to learn how the new changes have made the I-9 form correction process have impacted Employers and professionals on how they make corrections.
As a former external auditor hired by DHS, to review over 7,000 I-9 forms and make corrections, it is critical to review your I-9 forms now as the new I-9 forms have been effective since mid-2023.
As E-Verify continues to make their NextGen program a push for 2024, they predict that the error rate on the I-9 form will be reduced because the errors made by Employers have been most of the reason for the error rate. Since the Next Gen Program is a proposal, we have to wait to see if the error rate changes with the launching of the NextGen Program.
So what should employers do now as they mitigate their I-9 correction process and conduct internal audits? They should conduct their internal/external audits based on the current changes made to the current I-9 form. DHS has established what the errors are for 2024 and it is easy to be complacent but, audits will be pending soon.
As immigration remains at the center of national attention, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is not just stepping up its enforcement efforts at the border they are increasing their efforts by auditing Employers for potential I-9 form violations.
How Do Employers Get Audited?
Generally, ICE enforces an employer’s obligation to verify, and re-verify, the work authorization of all new employees. ICE may enforce this responsibility through random I-9 compliance audits or a narrower investigation based on a lead.
The lead can be an anonymous tip or facts that form a reasonable suspicion of an employer’s non-compliance. ICE has been concentrating its recent enforcement efforts on investigations, not random audits like previously.
These investigations have focused on all industries viewed as employing a large percentage of unauthorized workers (e.g., the construction industry, landscaping, manufacturing, or agricultural industry). However, there are still efforts by ICE to continue investigations in the workplace.
