Federal law requires that every employer who recruits, refers for a fee, or hires an individual for employment in the U.S. must complete Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification. The Form I-9 process, managed by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, will help you verify your employee's identity and employment authorization. In 2020, the USCIS issued a new I9 form, which must be used for all workers starting in August 2020. We will review the changes and all the important information regarding the I9 process. WE will highlight best practices and procedures for remote verification, it’s changed to the E-Verify Process, and other topics the DOL wants employers to know with the current pandemic.
Session Highlights:
We will take the I9 line by line, to make clear what information is necessary for your company to collect.
