The Real Deal on Form I-9

This is not the 'run of the mill I-9 presentation'.  Even the most 'seasoned' I-9 professionals will walk away from this 1 hour, high energy conversation saying "I didn't know that"!  We'll discuss the changes in the revised form I-9 and address many areas that include common mistakes made while completing the I-9, how you can complete an I-9 on a new hire, before they start working for pay, that there 'is' more than one I-9 that can be used in the USA and where you can use it along with copying documents and what to do if you are missing an I-9.

Participants will learn to: 
* Conduct employment eligibility verifications, via the Form I-9
* Avoid committing unfair work-r

elated employment practices in regards to the Form I-9
* E-Verify System
