I-9 Compliance Audits
I-9 Audits
Employers today have an ever-growing list of obligations to meet to keep their companies in good standing and with a focus on compliance to avoid Form I-9 violations and fines.
Businesses can be audited at any time. Once you have been selected for an audit, you have 72 hours to produce all I-9s for current and terminated employees. During the inspection, ICE inspectors review all the business documentation collected.
The following are the recent adjustments to I-9 penalties:
- The minimum fine per violation for substantive paperwork or uncorrected technical violations was increased from $237 to $252;
- The maximum fine per violation for substantive paperwork or uncorrected technical violations was increased from $2,360 to $2,507;
- First offense fines were increased from $583-$4,667 to $627-$5,016;
- Second offense fines was increased from $4,667-$11,665 to $5,016-$12,537; and
- Third or subsequent offense fines were increased from $6,999-$23,331 to $7,523-$25,076.
Don't wait until you are served a Notice of Inspection. Having an audit completed now will greatly reduce your risk of severe fines and possible imprisonment.
