Business leaders are focused on markets and the Coronavirus–as they should be–but they also need to be aware of another looming deadline at the end of April when the prior version of the I-9 form–which is the most fined government form and is required for all legally employed workers–becomes obsolete.
Category: ICE Audits
Immigration and Customs Enforcement, better known as ICE, is the enforcement arm of the Department of Homeland Security that is responsible for conducting Form I-9 audits. Over the past few years, the number of ICE Audits has increased substantially. During the Bush Administration, ICE was conducting roughly 400 audits per year. Under the Obama Administration, that number increased to nearly 2,500. In 2018, under the Trump Administration, ICE audits more than doubled. As the country continues to tighten its belt on immigration, this number is expected to continue to exponentially rise.
