Reporting: I-9 Management


ELECTRONIC I-9 SOLUTIONS

All new hires must fill out a Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification,
within the first 3 days of employment. Processing the forms can be
time-consuming, resource-intensive, and error-prone. Incorrect forms can result
in stiff penalties and fines and even debarment of government contracts. We can
help.

LEVERAGE OUR LEADERSHIP IN I-9 AND E-VERIFY SOLUTIONS

After the electronic I-9 form is completed on the Maximus electronic portal,
employee data is automatically submitted to the E-Verify program. The majority
of employees are successfully and immediately verified/work authorized; however,
if a non-verification or a tentative confirmation is returned, the Maximus
solutions help employers ensure that this difficult process is managed and
tackled until completion. Managers are able to view in real-time the status of
an E-Verify case to ensure they take the required steps to complete the process.
It's as easy as that.




UNDERSTAND WHY E-VERIFY IS IMPORTANT TO YOUR BUSINESS

E-Verify is a web-based system that allows employers to electronically validate
the employment eligibility of newly hired workers.

In 2009, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security made it mandatory for federal
contractors and subcontractors to use E-Verify to validate that employees are
eligible to work in the United States.

Three states (Arizona, Mississippi, and South Carolina) require E-Verify
participation for all employers, both public and private.

Nine other states (Colorado, Georgia, Idaho, Minnesota, Missouri, North
Carolina, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Nebraska, and Utah) require E-Verify
participation for those working in the public domain: state agencies,
contractors, or subcontractors.

HOW TO ENSURE YOUR EXISTING I-9S ARE AUDIT READY

Now, more than ever, I-9 compliance represents a huge liability for companies,
just sitting in their filing cabinets. ICE has committed to increased audits.

Do you know what percentage of your I-9s are paper? Do you know if I9s are
stored at various worksites, and how easy it is to gain access? Are those
locations secure in the event of a natural disaster? If your I-9s are
electronic, were they validated and audited internally?

COMMON I-9 FORM QUESTIONS

 * What is an I-9 form?
   
   The question "what is an I-9 form" is a common one, especially for new
   businesses hiring employees for the first time or for employees looking for
   work for the first time in the U.S. Form I-9 is used to verify the identity
   and employment authorization of individuals hired for employment in the
   United States. This form must be completed by the employer and employee.
   Acceptable documents must also be provided by the employee that gives
   evidence of employment authorization and identity. The employer will examine
   all documentation to determine they are genuine and valid. The form must be
   kept for a designated period of time and made available for inspection on
   request from authorized government officials.

 * How do I complete an I-9 form?
   
   If you are an employer or employee wondering how to complete an I-9 form,
   here are the basic steps for filling out each section. The form should be
   completed on the first day of work or before if possible and MUST be
   completed within three days of the employee's first day of work. The I-9 form
   has three sections; two to be filled out by the employer and one by the
   employee.
   
    * Section 1: The employee fills out the first section, entering their name,
      address, and birth date. They must also provide information on their legal
      status within the United States and their Social Security Number, if
      applicable. The form must be signed and dated by the employee. The
      employee will then need to present valid documentation to the employer.
      See further in this FAQ to see which documents are acceptable.
    * Section 2: Once the employer is satisfied that part 1 has been completed
      correctly and is in possession of acceptable documentation, they can fill
      out the final part of the form. The employer will need to include
      information, such as the employee's information, the date their employment
      started, and information about the company.
    * Section 3: This section should only be completed if the employee
      previously verified is being rehired or requires re-verification.

 * What do I need for the I-9 form?
   
   If you are an employee wondering what you need for the I-9 form, you will
   need to be in possession of acceptable documentation that proves your
   identity and that you are authorized to work in the United States.

 * What are acceptable documents?
   
   It is the responsibility of the employer to examine all documentation
   provided as evidence of identity and employment authorization. But what are
   acceptable documents? All employees completing an I-9 must provide valid
   documentation to show their authorization to work in the United States and
   prove their identity. For an up-to-date list of acceptable documents, check
   the United States Citizenship and Immigration website.

 * How long do I keep I-9 forms?
   
   According to government legislation, employers need to retain original I-9
   forms for three years after the hire date, or one year after the employee
   leaves the company. You should keep all forms separately away from other
   personnel records.

 * What is E-Verify?
   
   Employers may have heard of the E-Verify platform, but how can it benefit
   employers when verifying employee information? E-Verify is an internet-based
   system that allows employers to compare information provided by employees on
   Form I-9 against records held by the Social Security Administration and the
   U.S. Department of Homeland Security. The E-Verify website offers useful
   guidance on how employers can use E-Verify to compare employee information
   with official records held on file.

 * Should employers use a designated E-Verify agent?
   
   One question we are often asked is should employers use a designated E-Verify
   agent to complete employment eligibility checks on their behalf. There are a
   number of reasons for and benefits to using an agent, including:
   
    * If you do not have the necessary equipment, such as internet access or a
      computer to use E-Verify.
    * If you do not have the staff available or the time to use E-Verify.
    * If you already outsource your Form I-9 process and also wish to outsource
      E-Verify processes.
