quot;Notices of Inspection' ordering you to provide Forms I-9 relating to your employees to DHS for their review. Those forms will be examined by analysts and special agents to identify any indicators of identity fraud (unauthorized workers) as well as technical compliance. Where deficiencies are discovered, you should expect DHS to follow up repeatedly with additional Notices until there is a satisfactory resolution.
Where errors are found relating to the form, you will be served with a Notice of Intent to Fine articulating each error as well as the fine for each violation. Fines are expected to be 'substantial'. Traditional auditing and electronic Form I-9 services should do a relatively good job protecting you from this liability.
However, where indicators of identity fraud are discovered, you will be served with a notice to resolve the discrepancy with your employee and report back the results within a short period of time. Failure to resolve the issue to DHS' satisfaction will result in a direct intervention by them to resolve the discrepancy at the worksite. DHS will identify virtually all of your unauthorized workers through this process who will either be terminated or arrested.
Note: Although we advocate participation in E-Verify, it does not effectively identify unauthorized workers claiming to be U.S. citizens. DHS has not accepted that their notification of authorized employment through this process relieves the employer of their responsibility, within reason, to independently determine authorization to work. E-Verify will not protect you from fines and/or the removal of unauthorized workers from the workplace.
