Immigration, I-9s, and E-Verify: What All Employers Need to Know-and Do-Now
Immigration, I-9s, and E-Verify Audio Conference on CD
Armed officers in bulletproof vests branded with the word “ICE” storm into your facility and take several workers into custody. The workers, alleged illegal aliens, are detained and interrogated for hours by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers. While this scenario may sound like the opening scene of a blockbuster movie, it has recently become a terrifying reality for many employers around the country. ICE is stepping up its enforcement efforts, and you need to be prepared.
Order this revealing audio conference recording that will explain how to lessen your risk of costly verification mistakes and the legal and media firestorm that could engulf your organization if ICE audits (or, even worse, raids) your organization. You’ll learn how to properly document and authenticate workers’ eligibility for employment. Plus, our expert – an experienced immigration attorney – will tell you which documents will, and won’t, help you in the event you’re questioned about workers’ eligibility.
You and your colleagues will learn:
- Recent legislative developments that could affect how you proceed with your I-9 compliance efforts
- Key points you need to know about the Immigration Control and Reform Act
- Tips on filling out, filing, verifying, and destroying I-9s
- What you can do if a worker refuses to sign an I-9
- Best practices for auditing existing and former workers’ I-9 forms
- Who must use E-Verify and the level of accuracy you can expect from it
- What to do if you receive a no-match letter and how your constructive knowledge about a worker’s status could affect your legal obligations to act
- How to avoid I-9-related discrimination claims
- Step-by step crisis management advice on what to do if immigration authorities audit your organization
