So this month, Pete Wright sets the headlines aside and asks for something more durable: a framework. What really lands on an employer’s desk, where do the mistakes hide, and how do you keep up without guessing?\nShiva Karimi, Chair of the Immigration Practice Group at McLane Middleton, opens with her Immigration 101: three buckets that explain who can work in the United States and for how long. Kallee McGraw, Senior HR Services Coordinator at AIM HR Solutions, follows with the view from someone who has reviewed thousands of I-9s, and she’s candid about where they go wrong. From there the conversation turns to the change that matters most this year: ICE’s revised fact sheet, which moved a long list of errors from the correctable column to the fineable one with no notice and no rulemaking.\nAlong the way: how an audit actually unfolds, what counts toward the fine, why an internal audit has to look at everyone, what to do when an employee brings the wrong document, and the one golden opportunity an acquisition offers to start the I-9 file over from scratch. The episode closes on Massachusetts’s new PROTECT Act and its 48-hour employee notice requirement, plus three things to do Monday morning.\nLinks & Notes\nAIM HR Solutions free I-9 Compliance Checklist: “Is Your I-9 Paperwork Audit-Ready?”\nAIM HR Solutions I-9 Audit and Remediation Services\nUSCIS I-9 Central (current form, instructions, and guidance)\nMassachusetts guidance for employers on the PROTECT Act I-9 notice requirement\nShiva Karimi, McLane Middleton\nAIM HR Helpline: 800-470-6277, helpline@aimnet.org, Monday–Friday 8:30 a.m.–5:00 p.m. ET","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/X5rWk8hmNiqOqWqFEWn5FvHTyP5q_-h1OnBcklccaBQ/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzMyOTM0LzE2NTk1/NjY0MTQtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
