What Employers Must Know About the 2017 Form I-9
Duration: 90 minutes
Speaker: Sharon Mehlman
Webinar Description
On November 14, 2016, USCIS released a new, revised Form I-9 which must be used by employers by January 22, 2017. The Form I-9 is used by all employers to verify the identity and work authorization of their employees. There are several changes to the new form and guidance (not to mention several more pages than before), and it is important that you are fully aware of all of the nuances before you start to use it. In addition, it is expected that I-9 and E-Verify enforcement will increase under the Trump Administration, so this is also a good time to make sure that you start using the new form correctly and that you have the best compliance program in place. Please join experienced immigration lawyer Sharon Mehlman of Mehlman Barnes LLP for this webinar. Ms. Mehlman will review all of the latest information on this new form. There will be plenty of time for questions. If you are involved in the hiring process, this seminar is for you.
Agenda
Areas of discussion will include:
- New fields on the I-9 form
- New rules and new interpretations that have changed from the current I-9 form
- New immigration rules (also effective in January 2017) that may affect I-9 processing
- Best practices and procedures for I-9 completion, storage and retention
- Likely changes under the Trump Administration.
