Preparing, correcting and auditing Form I-9 is still a headache for many employers. The form is two pages, but its instructions ran to 15 pages and the related manual to more than 70.
This 90-minute webinar explains the redesign meant to simplify it: Sections 1 and 2 combined on one page, Section 3 moved to a stand-alone Reverification and Rehire Supplement, an updated List of Acceptable Documents with a link to List C documents, instructions cut from 15 pages to 7, and PDF enhancements removed so the form works on any device.
It also covers the DHS flexibility for remote document inspection, the written remote onboarding and telework policy employers need, trending errors and internal audit steps.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
Repeated changes and extensions have left many employers unsure how to complete the I-9 correctly, and errors lead to fines and penalties. This session helps you avoid hidden traps in the new instructions, use the additional information field well, and know which E-Verify fields must always be completed.
It suits employers in all industries, business owners, company leaders, compliance and HR professionals, office managers and supervisors.
