5 Common Questions Asked About the I9 Form
Federal audits for the form I9 are up from 1,444 in 2009 to 3,127 in 2013. With this rise in audits also comes a rise in the fines collected, a total of about $1 million in 2009 to over $15 million in 2013.
The average fine per form I9 can be up to $900, states an attorney Daniel Brown with Fragomen in Washington, D.C. However, it doesn’t stop at fines, if you knowingly hire an employee who is not authorized to work in this country, you could be subject to arrest and criminal charges.

Section 3. Reverification and Rehires:
This section is only to be used when an employee’s temporary work authorization expires, keeping in mind that there is no grace period when an Employment Authorization expires.
If you do a rehire, it is recommended that the employer reviews the employee’s old I9 form. If the employee is eligible to work, then Section 3 should be used on the employee’s old form with the rehire date. Keep in mind that it is not a requirement to complete a new form I9 for this employee, as long as the old form I9 is still retained.
Keep in Mind: Fines are collected when employers make paperwork errors, do not document properly, work authorizations are not properly reverified, and when an electronic storage system does not meet the requirements. Fines range from $110 - $1,110 per violation and is under the ultimate discretion of the auditor. (J.J. Keller & Associates)

An audit trail, consisting of a file of all employees names, social security numbers and I-9 verification forms will be the one tool needed to ensure that all employees are legal citizens. 3. In the case of hiring outside contractors to perform some of the transportation, cargo and handling duties IRS ID numbers will be sufficient proof that the company has followed all USCIS laws and hires only document workers and contractors. All companies nationwide are required by law to follow the I-9 Law of 1986. To ensure success, the audit trail must end where it starts; meaning when an employee or contractor is hired to perform the duties at hand, once the I-9 or IRS Tax ID number is secured and the form is complete, the company is free and clear from any audit non-compliance.
