I-9 Audits & Compliance (Employer Compliance)

Raleigh Employer Compliance Immigration Lawyers

I-9 Audits & Compliance

The United States immigration system is very confusing - and not just for foreign citizens who are attempting to live and work in this country. The laws concerning immigration can also prove complicated and burdensome for employers in the United States who wish to hire workers from other countries. If you do not follow the specific regulations set forth by the government, you could face serious consequences.

Helping You Maintain Compliance with Immigration Laws

Hiring Raleigh employer compliance immigration attorneys to help you review your business policies or counsel you during an audit could be one of the best decisions you make during this time. At Gardner Law, PLLC, we understand the specific laws concerning employer compliance in hiring and immigration issues.

We stay up to date with the latest changes in immigration law to represent our clients effectively. With a reputation for successful client advocacy and informed counsel, we are prepared to help you maintain compliance with immigration laws in order to avoid negative repercussions.

Some of the cases we handle include the following:

I-9 Compliance – Every employee must fill out an Employment Eligibility Verification Form I-9. We recommend taking proactive measures to ensure that your business' procedures are in line with the I-9 compliance laws in order to avoid repercussions from the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Our attorneys can help you review your company policies and, if you have received a notice of inspection from the ICE, provide the legal counsel you need before and during the audit.
E-Verify Audits – The E-Verify program is an Internet auditing program that matches the information each of your employees supplied on his or her Employment Eligibility Verification Form I-9 with the information contained in government records. Call Gardner Law to learn more about this program or for representation before E-Verify officials.
Social Security and No-Match Letters – The Social Security Administration (SSA) will send an employer a no-match letter if one of his or her employees is found to not have a Social Security number. This could signify possible ineligibility to work in the U.S. If you received a no-match letter from the SSA, contact Gardner Law to discuss how you should respond.
