1 in 5 Small Businesses Are at Risk for Massive I-9 Penalties. Is Yours One of Them?

ICE is already conducting audits — and they’re not accepting excuses.

With the revised Form I‑9 released in January 2025 now in effect, and alternative remote verification procedures available for qualified employers, staying compliant is more important than ever. These updates have reshaped the way HR teams handle employment eligibility documentation, especially for remote and hybrid workforces.

Our survey of 2,065 small and mid-size companies revealed a troubling reality: nearly 1 in 5 businesses are currently at risk for I‑9 violations — even those with otherwise strong HR processes.

Even worse? Many HR leaders don’t realize they’re non-compliant until it’s too late.

Join us on August 19th for our exclusive webinar:
