Reminder: New Mandatory Form I-9 Effective September 18, 2017

The transition period for use of the new Form I-9 is ending and the new version (07.17.17) is mandatory beginning Monday, September 18. DWT reported the change in July and has been working with employers on updating training manuals and best practices. I-9 and E-verify compliance are becoming increasingly scrutinized, so employers are advised to review internal policies to ensure compliance with the new form and instructions. If you have any questions about the changes or I-9 compliance, reach out to the DWT immigration group.
