Former INS Trial Attorney Carl Shusterman (1976-82) explains what employers can do to avoid an I-9 audit, and what they should do it they are audited. Schedule a legal consultation (by Skype, telephone or in person) at http://shusterman.com/schedule-immigration-consultation.html
Below are a few simple rules regarding I-9 forms:
1. Each person you employ must complete Part 1 of the I-9 on or before his/her first day of employment.
2. You, as the employer, must complete Part 2 of the I-9 on or before the person's 3rd day or employment.
3. Be sure that the person who completes the I-9 signs and dates the form.
4. Store the I-9 forms together and not in each employee's personnel file. You are permitted to store the I-9 forms electronically.
5. Store the I-9 forms of current employees separately from the I-9s of former employees.
6. I-9 forms must be kept for 3 years after a person is hired or 1 year after they quit, retire or are terminated, whichever date is later.
