Description

A New I-9 Form was announced for 2022 but never got here as of yet. We expect that the new I-9 form will be created and launched by 2023. However, we do know what the proposed changes are and Employers and Employer representatives need to prepare for.  This training will provide all the proposed changes to the I-9 Form and specific examples that everyone can see. We also have some of the copies of draft forms to visually see the changes.

DHS has issued a requirement that Employers may use the expired October 31, 2022 I-9 form effective November 1, 2022, until the new I-9 form is launched. Compliance best practice is to indicate any changes in DHS requirements like using expired documents, that the Employer should create a document confirming the change and the effective date as a compliance effort.

DHS has extended the date of the remote I-9 Form option to July 31, 2023, which is helpful but only for fully remote employees. Although the extension is to the end of July 2023, Employers still must follow all the requirements until the normal operations resume according to DHS.

DHS revised some of the ID documents for to reduce the risk of fraud and counterfeiting.

Why should you attend?

At the end of January 2023, DHS has revised some of their ID documents to become effective based on the expiration date of the identified documents. These revisions will need to be used to reduce the risk of fraud and counterfeiting; USCIS redesigns the Permanent Resident Card (PRC) every three to five years.

The I-9 form preparation, correction and internal audit is still a headache and even a nightmare for Employers and professional.  If this 2-page document was easy why is there is a 15-page instruction page and over 70 pages in a manual to complete the form. Professionals should learn how to identify errors and prepare for future external audits by DHS.

Learn how all the DHS changes can impact Employers and risk fines penalties if they are not compliant.
