Tuesday, May 3, 2016
8:30 am Registration, Coffee, Pastries
9:00 am Meeting
Join us on May 3rd for a meeting on Form I-9 compliance presented by the Saqui Law Group.
Completing the I-9 form can be a timely and confusing process and if not done correctly can result in major repercussions for your business. Form I-9 In a Nutshell will provide guidance on the process for completing the form, and compliance requirements through the Department of Homeland Security. This briefing will provide you with information on what forms are acceptable when trying to establish identity for employees whether U.S. citizens or non U.S. citizens, acceptable procedures for storing those old forms, and what to do when those unforeseen situations may arise. Stop crossing your fingers and hoping you filled out those I-9’s correctly, learn what you need to know to become compliant.
