You may remember that back on February 2, 2009 the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) asked that we start using a revised I-9 form. On the day that is was supposed to be effective, USCIS told us not to start using that form for a 60 day period. The Obama administration wanted to review the form before it went into effect. Well, those 60 days are up and starting April 3, 2009 you should start using the new form (that is unless we get another last minute notification saying to hold off). Probably the biggest change is in the type of documentation that will now be acceptable. No longer will new hires be able to use expired identification documents to verify their work eligibility.
At Management 2000 our Payroll Services and Human Resources Department verify that acceptable identification is used and take the necessary steps to ensure compliance if proper identification is not used. We take care of this administrative function for our clients because we know you have a business to run
Comments for It's time to start using the new I-9...maybe.
