ICE Confirms Deadline For Correcting Paperwork Errors
Although only one page, compliance with form I-9 can be deceptively difficult. But meticulous compliance with the form’s requirements is essential to avoiding significant penalties down the road. To that end, employers should train the employees who administer the I-9 process. A good starting point includes requiring those employees to be familiar with the Handbook for Employers: Instructions for Completing Form I-9. The Handbook provides step-by-step instructions for completing the Form I-9 and can be found at the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services’ Web site: http://www.uscis.gov/files/nativedocuments/m-274.pdf. Prudent employers will also audit their existing I-9s to make sure they identify and address mistakes.
